Denver Public Schools has filed a lawsuit against the Department of Homeland Security and Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem over a policy allowing ICE immigration agents to enter schools. The federal lawsuit claims that the policy has caused attendance to plummet due to the amount of illegal aliens in the district.
“DPS is hindered in fulfilling its mission of providing education and life services to the students who are refraining from attending DPS schools for fear of immigration enforcement actions occurring on DPS school grounds,” the lawsuit states, according to a report from ABC News.
“Parents across Denver enroll their children in public schools believing that while at school, their children will be educated and enriched without fear the government will enforce immigration laws on those premises,” the lawsuit continues.
The lawsuit says there are roughly 4,000 illegal aliens in the school district, primarily Hispanic or Latino.
The complaint claims the Trump administration has not provided a “good reason” for the policy change.
“Denver is standing up for its children and families and protecting the right of all children, regardless of their immigration status, to attend public schools,” Elora Mukherjee, director of the Immigrants’ Rights Clinic at Columbia Law School, said in a statement to ABC.

Hispanic or Latino.
So, does that mean that the taxpayers don’t have to waste money educating illegal aliens?
The lawsuit says there are roughly 4,000 illegal aliens in the school district, primarily Hispanic or Latino.
And why should American tax payers have to pay for them.
Seems like a good way of saving money.
yep.
el boo hoo.
How do they know those families didn’t just self-deport?
Hit the road Manuel! And don’t you come back no more, no more, no more, no more!
“attendance has plummeted” - that’s because the attendants at the school, at least the ones that aren’t showing up, are NOT Americans and don’t deserve taxpayer-funded education anyway. They can go to school at home. Which isn’t the United States.
At $2,200/month immigrants aren’t paying for daycare in Denver. They hire grandma,family and neighbors to babysit dozens of kids to an apt.
An unforeseen side effect of immigration enforcement; fewer young minds for ultra-left indoctrination which should lead to fewer jobs for the indoctrinators. Imagine that!
Yay! It’s working!
Hatino..
The school districts get more money per student so they are looking at this as a financial drain for them instead of a win for American students and the taxpayers.
Abolish the Dept of Education and go after anyone trying to subvert justice.
Public schools get paid (with lots of Fed money) per attending student.
ICE is hurting their cash cow.
Agreed 👍
I wonder if Denver is defrauding the Federal Government by getting $$$ for pupils (neglecting to mention that 4000 illegals are on their roles.
That’s good news! Replace all those ESL classes and detention rooms with A.P. courses!
roughly 4,000 illegal aliens
other options, reduce staff to cover the income loss.
Would be interesting to hear the conversation. Is it about the money or..................
Education for illegals?
More like indoctrination.
How to game the system and bite the hand that feeds you.
Literally deport everyone, family, all of them!
