The problem where I live is that there a limited number of places in the good public universities, and were they to give preference to illegals, even more U.S. citizens would be left out of the schools their parents have been paying taxes to support all of their lives. As it is, the University of Virginia is full of students from New Jersey and Connecticut, supplanting Virginians, but at least they are paying out-of-state tuition.
Ping!
We will keep all appendages crossed and say prayers continuously that the Constitution is upheld. Of course what may happen is that it will end the instate/outofstate designation for students and thus raise costs for all. Go figure
