What a tiresome lie. Why do you people keep repeating the lie that taxpayers are paying to subsidize illegals who attend universities in Texas?

If you are going to make a statement, you really should learn the facts before you make a fool of yourself.

For the umpteenth time, Texas has no income tax. All state taxes are paid by all residents, legal or illegal. Schools in Texas are funded by property taxes--which are paid by all residents illegal or legal--either directly (on property they own) or indirectly (through rent). Additional funding comes from the lottery--which, it could be argued, is disproportionately funded by illegals since they tend to play more than most other demographics--production taxes, and franchise fees. Additional state income comes from our state sales tax. Again we have no state income tax, so all illegals pay all the same taxes that legal residents pay.

Look slow one, do not rewrite what I said and then call it a lie. The illegal under law is not entitled to the education, there fore you have reduced the illegals fees. That is a subsidy. And take your itty bitty computer and look up how much money is transfere to the states each year from the department of education. Texas gets in the hundreds of millions each year. So if there is any lying, and/or disinformation here, it comes from you.
