Your child can get the same rates in Texas without having to meet the high level of qualification that these children of illegals get.
Any Kid in America can take advantage of Texas in state tuition if they move here, become a resident and offer proof of working here for one year.
The number of kids born to illegals in Texas that qualify is tiny, and the legislature passed this matter into law by a margin that could not be vetoed by Perry.
Beyond that, I can’t understand why people in Oregon or any other state feel ripped off.
Texans pick up the slack for the in state tuition fees, not America at large.
The Texas legislature passed this law with only 4 dissenting votes and they did so because it was the judgement of them and of the people that it was in the interests of Texans and of the general welfare to do so.
Illegal aliens don’t have to satisfy any residency requirements. They can jump the fence and immediately start in state tuition. The language concerning residency is there to appease those that don’t know any better
And once the tax payers of Texas pay for an illegal alien to be educated at a university, how is that college educated illegal alien of any use to the State of Texas or the United States?
