In his first meeting of a recent day, Vivek Kundra stood in front of a large monitor, grilling employees about the status of projects to revamp technology in Washington's schools, police cars, jails and health clinics. Kundra, the chief technology officer for the District, begins most of his days this way to keep close tabs on his department's progress.

Tanto el partido demócrata como el Presidente Obama evalúan estos días las posibilidades de aprobar el DREAM Act, un proyecto de ley que impulsaría la legalización de miles de estudiantes indocumentados. Una primera votación en el mes de septiembre fue bloqueada por los senadores republicanos, pero después del triunfo de varios demócratas en las pasadas elecciones legislativas aumenta la presión para que cumplan con las promesas hechas al electorado hispano.

The legislation would grant undocumented students who were brought into the United States as minors by their parents a path to citizenship through higher education or military service.
