As part of her bill, Elliott required that illegal aliens who receive in-state tuition file an affidavit with the college or university they attend, stating that they intend to legalize their immigration status.

I see she has been taking lessons from our crazy Kansas governor. We had the same exact bill pass. One thing, these illegal immigrants cannot legalize their immigration status without leaving the country and applying to re-enter. The result of their being here illegally in the first place will result in a 10 year ban, and then her chances of ever getting here legally are zero and none.

I'm sure that will be enforced as heartily as, "don't overstay your student visa...please".

Folks,

This is about money. It increases enrollment at the colleges and gets the tuition paid for by federal aid. From the state's perspective it's a way to fund the state universities.
