Elizabeth Warren reiterates her support for the DREAM Act.

Warren also reiterated her support for the DREAM Act, which would create a path to citizenship for young illegal immigrants who complete high school and obtain a higher education degree or join the military.

Warren says it is the "right thing to do" as it would allow "people who are here through no fault of their own" to get a path to citizenship through being a productive member of society. "You can count on me," Warren said in reference to supporting the DREAM Act.

Brown is adamantly against it, calling the process a form of "amnesty."

Lydia Lebron said she has already voted for Warren through absentee ballot and was thrilled with her visit. "She supports the poor and working class," Lebron said. "She has come to see us out here in Springfield and she cares about what we need."
