Question..does the Dream Act preclude the current immigration laws orientation towards “family reunification?” IOW, people who snuck in here illegally years ago, brought young kids with them. If theses kids, now get a pathway to citizenship, can’t someday they apply to legalize the rest of their families?

Of course, the plan is to sponsor entire families or claimed families. From Rep. King's op-ed:

Further, neither analysis includes the estimated impact of the costs to be incurred by the “backdoor amnesty” the bill provides for the family members of illegal aliens. Many do not realize that illegal aliens who receive amnesty under the bill become eligible at the age of 21 to sponsor members of their family for citizenship too. The cost of “chain migration” will be enormous.
