“If
... you’re an illegal alien and you get into California you’re going to
get in-state tuition benefits from the Board of Regents, the University
of California. You’re going to be encouraged to stay and live there.”
The
watchdog group Judicial Watch is petitioning the Supreme Court to
review the use of funds by independent state agencies. The group is
filing a lawsuit on behalf of a resident of California to end in-state
tuition grants for illegal aliens from the University of California.
According to the group, roughly 27 million dollars in California
taxpayer money is going to fund tuitions for illegal alien or
non-resident students.
Judicial Watch president, Tom Fitton says, “the Board of Regents isn’t
the state legislature. They can’t authorize illegal benefits like the
state tuition.”
He says, though controversial, it’s legal for the state to issue
certain in-state tuition benefits to illegal aliens, but it’s not legal
of independent agencies like the Regent to do so. He and Judicial Watch
are petitioning the Supreme Court to review the policies to “send a
signal to various jurisdictions or localities trying to run their own
immigration policies.”
He blames the policies for not only being unlawful but also setting a
precedent that encourages illegal immigration. He calls it a “kind of
state-wide sanctuary policy.” He adds, “If you know you’re an illegal
alien and you get into California you’re going to get in-state tuition
benefits from the Board of Regents, the University of California.
You’re going to be encouraged to stay and live there.”

Won't work. The talking monkeys in sacramento will just make it legal, and they'll do it overnight. The city of LA is already using tax dollars to pay lawyers to protect f'n illegals. There's no end to either stupid or corrupt when it comes to California government.
ReplyDeleteWait, What kind of free stuff does Sandra Bullock like most?

It's a shame they have to sue the traitorous bastards for using public funds to encourage illegal activities. Even worse, with a win, the regents will probably continue their practice, which means more legal actions....all on taxpayer dollars.
ReplyDeleteThere are easier solutions, but they're messy.
What I find annoying is that if I went to college in California, I would have to pay out of state tuition, because I don't live in California. However, if my daughter-in-law's niece snuck across the border, and enrolled she would get in-state tuition, because she would be illegal.
