But the supreme court didn’t say that were were obligated to give ADULT illegal aliens access to a COLLEGE education.
They have to pay their tuition so not costing you a penny.
Evidently Texas passed a law that allowed this, Seems to me your beef is with your state legislature.
The issue isn’t is a state university can admit illegal aliens. Our universities in Texas and the nation have been admitting FOREIGNERS to our universities since George Washington. Your issue is that Perry supports a law that allows a very narrowly-defined group of people (15,000 to be more exact) in-state tuition, if they attended three years of Texas high school.
Note that if a high schooler in Alabama wanted in-state tuition to Texas A&M, that Alabaman need only have a residence in Texas for 1 year. No three years in high school required.
This is a totally stupid reason to hate Perry.
The reason you can be disappointed in Perry is because he totally fubared the answer to Romney in that first debate over this. And now the rest of the overly paranoid anti-Mexican coalition of fringe right black helicopter kooks are running circular patterns around the parking lot screaming. You know these types. They are the most annoying dinner companions. They never shut up about their silly conspiracy theories. And they know that they are ALWAYS right, and you just aren’t as informed as they are in whatever InfoWars puts on their silly Web site.
Had Perry noted that the law is not a subsidy, and went into all the good things his Governor’s office has done to secure the Texas-Mexico border, he wouldn’t have given ammo to the goon squad.

They cannot be denied access to a college.
According to the Federal law.
The in-state tuition is paid by the Adult child of an illegal if they have lived in Texas at least 3 years, graduated and have the grades to be accepted.
Most have been here most of their lives.
Just like all other Texas students. Military who are stationed in Texas. All legal immigrants. And students living in neighboring counties in Okla, Louisiana and New Mexico.
