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.

Out of Staters need to file a class action against the State of New York, demanding the same treatment. New York is violating the Civil Rights laws by giving preference on the basis of national origin.

Yeah, at last California hasn’t passed new legislation so it can kill babies one minute before normal delivery, though I’m sure that will be passed in an hour or two...

It looks like New York should have a only a set amount that their state legislators can appropriate otherwise it should be by referendum.

In California, active duty military members there on orders pay out of state tuition for any night classes they might take, while illegal invaders get in state rates. The price difference is massive.

It already is. Westchester county is going to be the first insolvent county in NYS. They are looking to tax everything. Look for the state to follow suit.
