New York state lawmakers approved a measure that aims to dole out millions in taxpayer-funded aid to “Dreamers”—who entered the country illegally—attending college.

The now Democratic-controlled New York state Legislature on Wednesday passed the Dream Act, legislation that would make thousands of “Dreamers” eligible for financial aid to attend public colleges in the state. The bill, which has attracted praise from Democratic New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo, would cost $27 million.

Supporters of the Dream Act say they will also consider allowing illegal immigrants to obtain driver’s licenses and give them better housing protections. Cuomo has also expressed interest in forcing insurance companies to provide free contraceptive care.

Gotta make sure they receive the anti-American indoctrination our institutions of higher learning focus on.

“a slap in the face for all the hardworking taxpayers who play the rules and struggle”

I will count the days until NY politicians bring up a bill for a tax increase. What a JOKE and how sad for working people that are trapped in NY.

These people never seem to learn, and it’s so sad to see the same mistake over and over again.

Hello ….? Got Venezuela ? Hey NY why stop with college?
Just send the check to their home country! I can hear the laughter!

You can't take that vacation with your kids to Disney World that you saved up for because some Dreamer wants to go to college.

They get a free college education and can't buy their own rubbers?

from Google:
“Self-destructive behavior is any behavior that is harmful or potentially harmful towards the person who engages in the behavior. Self-destructive behaviors exist on a continuum, with suicide at one extreme end of the scale. Self-destructive actions may be deliberate, born of impulse, or developed as a habit.
