They’re not Americans.
They don’t file income taxes.
They take jobs away from Americans.
They are a drain on our available funds.
They’re ILLEGAL.

What part of NO isn’t clear?

They shouldn’t be in the state to begin with. They should be jailed and deported. Tuition? LOL!

Hard to believe but NEW JERSEY actually voted this down just before Corzine got beat by Christie.

"They should be jailed and deported."

Absolutely, and no exceptions. None.

And at its core, the tuition issue is one of fairness: Should the children of illegal immigrants be punished for the country’s broken immigration system?

They certainly should not be rewarded. Especially not courtesy of legal American citizen or resident tax money.

NO.

Prior to getting the break, a system should be put into place
they requires them to provide documentation or certification
that they are indeed here illegally, after which they proceed
through the next doorway into the waiting arms of immigration.

As soon as they explain precisely why the illegals should be given preferntial treatment over Nebraskans... and then explain why the illegals should also eb given preferential treatment over other foreign students (who actually followed the laws, waited in lines, filled out the forms, got the proper visas)... THEN I might bother to listen to anything that the “pro” side has to say. Until then, they can just spare me the “just as Iowan” and “hard-working” lines/lies.

I like this line...They’re just as Iowan as any other Iowa native.

No, they would be treated better then any other Iowa native.
Maybe it’s time Iowans delete Rep. Ako Abdul-Samad.
