Answer:

Views on the Dream act and political ideology do not seem to be independent.

Step-by-step explanation:

The mosaic plot displays that Liberals are more likely to encourage the act compared to Moderates and Conservatives. It is evident by the fact that the bar representing Liberals supporting the ideology covers more area compared to the other two parties and this is something that makes the viewpoints on the dream act and political ideology far from independent.
