Massachusetts State Higher Education Tuition Break For Illegals
Massachusetts State Higher Education Tuition Break For Illegals
Massachusetts in a bill House #1230 proposed by State Rep LaFleur & Senator Barrios of Cambridge, proposes to permit illegal aliens to attend state colleges and universities at in-state resident tuition rates, if they have applied for adjustment of status or citizenship per the news account at Channel 22-WWLP the Springfield Massachusetts NBC affiliate.
As proposed, the bill would sustain a variant of state amnesty for illegal aliens permitting them to pursue a higher education advantage in state facilities as if a resident of the state. It appears to rely heavily on current immigration law which can permit a pending applicant to have the status of American residency until the US INS actually rules against them. In past immigration matters, this pendancy has been humanely individually resolved or permitted for short term employment pending a green card application; and of course medical emergencies.
As the story reads, the Massachusetts College President quoted has made a ludicrous defense of the prospect claiming that Massachusetts declining legal population would benefit by the immigration (ie as if in any kind) a rather ridiculous over-reach --and actually unconstitutional. This blogger, as most in Americans -sustains systemic uniform LEGAL immigration.
