Michigan Gov. Rick Snyder says he is backing an amnesty for 3 million ‘dreamer’ illegals because it is good for business and government revenues.

Synder laid out the business-first view in the Detroit Free Press, even as he ignored President Donald Trump’s populist focus on Americans’ pay packets, neighborhoods and civic priorities:

Dreamers are, and continue to be, drivers of economic growth. They are lawyers, teachers, students, entrepreneurs and small-business owners who help grow our economy in their own way. In fact, 5% of all Dreamers and 8% of Dreamers over the age of 25 have started a business, outpacing the American average of 3.1%.

It is clear that in Michigan, and in our nation, the economic benefits of passing the Dream Act significantly outweigh the overwhelming cost of deportation. That is why we should pass the Dream Act and ensure dreamers are able to remain here as productive members of our communities.
