ALBANY, N.Y. (AP) - Legislation to provide financial aid and other assistance to college-bound illegal immigrants is gaining political support in New York a year after the idea withered in Albany and Washington.

How does a poor white kid get this kind of help?
Uh.....NY is flat broke like most of the blue states. Where are they going to get the money?
NY is THE highest taxed state in the union already. That's why RUSH left.
Because of their new anti-defence legislation, even the hunters who travel a long way to hunt in NY (and pay a hefty price to do it) aren't going to be showing up next year. Hunting, and the licences/regulations associated with it in upstate, WAS a huge part of NY's income.
Typical gutless politicians......f-— the taxpayers.
And so it continues.
He doesn’t. They don’t want to help him.
He doesn’t. They don’t want to help him.
I wonder how the Occupy crowd feels about this. They're American kids. They have to pay for theirs. Tens of thousands of dollars worth.
Good luck with those student loans, occupiers. YOU supported these democrat politicians, remember? They've already got your votes, so get to work. You've got loans to pay off - suckers!
Yes, well, I say we should let 2 Mexicans in for every 1 Muslim we kick out of the country. Mexicans are mostly Catholic and don’t abort their babies. Mexicans work for a living.
We need to start exporting Muslims and importing Mexicans.
Every Mexican who is working in this country is doing a job an American should be doing. The "jobs Americans won't do" line is a lie. The construction industry is filled with ILLEGAL scum that ignored our laws and came here ILLEGALLY. Put an end to the free rides and fill those jobs with welfare recipients. Ship home the lawbreakers.
We've got millions of Americans on some type of welfare. Why? It doesn't take a rocket scientist to pick lettuce.
There's no reason why the welfare crowd can't do what the immigrants are doing. No reason other than laziness ( ...and the politicians reward them for it!!!).
Maybe we can deport Marco Rubio to NY...he would fit in with the Amnesty Liberals up there
People do not realize how much tax dollars it will cost to give Illegals amnesty....whether it is blanket amnesty or DREAM Act Amnesty. Illegal Alien Amnesty will cost us as much as ObamaCare does
BTDT and there are very, very few scholarships for smart white kids. Just look online at specialized programs within college departments and they spell it out that they cater to illegals over smart white US citizen students. The roommate the college paired Junior (#3 in his class) up with had pratically a free ride but don't get me on that soapbox.
