No, it just means that there are now more kids competing for the same number of seats in the classrooms. And by not paying out of state tuition rates, they’re receiving an incentive that was normally reserved for the children of taxpaying residents of the state(s).
That’s my problem with these “DREAM” Acts (CA & TX). A larger pool of applicants means less kids accepted.
Which kids do you think are going to get the “sympathy” acceptance letters? The white Americans or the brown illegals?
In CA, the taxpayers are soon to be on the hook to pay for those illegals to bump our kids out of college, if Gov. moonbeam signs that pos legislation.
It sounds to me like Perry jumped the shark then. If a Oklahoma citizen wants into a Texas school he is slammed with an out of state tuition in Texas but not an illegal from Texas. That, to me, is criminal and Perry should be embarrassed instead of proud. This kind of stuff really irks me. CA is about to do the same.
