These students aren’t illegals. They were born here and are US citizens - and have lived in Florida all their lives (and paid local taxes there, as well as Federal income taxes, SS, etc.). The State of Florida is going to lose this one, because we’ve never had a situation where children can be punished for something their parents did or did not do.
Exactly.
This will be an easy one for any court as all one needs to do is to read the Constitution.
“The State of Florida is going to lose this one, because we’ve never had a situation where children can be punished for something their parents did or did not do.”
As long as the students are dependents of the parents they do. If they use the dependency as a means to get health insurance under their parents policy . . .
“...we’ve never had a situation where children can be punished for something their parents did or did not do.”
In high school, I had a scholarship to any accredited NY state college. I graduated in June of ‘66. My dad accepted a job in Ohio in August of ‘66. Because my parents’ legal address was no longer in NY, I lost the scholarship; it was for residents only. (We didn’t know that when he changed jobs.) I know it’s not a U.S. “thing”, but children can be punished for something their parents did or did not do.
