Sounds like Perry wants to use the 10th amendment to give him cover for amnesty and other goodies for illegals. He just went down considerably in my estimation.
What other "goodies?"
More support for ILLEGAL aliens from RINO Rick.
THe 10th amendment isn’t a cover for anything. It’s a constitutional restriction which allows states to run their own lives without representatives of other states bugging them about it.
Immigration is a federal issue, and as he said, it needs to be dealt with federally. But in enforcement of illegal immigration laws, which the federal government also has a big part of, Perry is saying that each state should be allowed to also take actions as they see fit, which includes deciding in their own states what their own taxpayers will subsidize in the way of illegals.
Note that nothing in the Texas law that allows illegal immigrants to get in-state tuition would prevent the federal government from deporting them. They are in the state, the state has to deal with them, and Texans, through their duly elected legislature representing their people, have decided that they’d rather have them get college-educated on the taxpayer dime than not.
So long as I don’t have to pay a penny for it, why should I care? That is what the 10th amendment says — states should keep out of other state’s business, meaning the feds should stay out.
More amnesty from RINO Rick.
Are you catching on...that’s good. I had a Purple Heart vet drive to Austin from Cibolo, Tx. to testify in favor of a bill to rein in sanctuary cities.He had to sit and wait for hours listening to every church,business and commie group. Illegals testifying in Spanish with translators,said he got sickly and had to leave. Was never able to testify.
Yeah, what a bunch of crap. They are taking American jobs and billions in taxpayer funds. Heck, in some states all they have to do is have babies and they get cash every month for each child...plus citizenship! what are we, a bunch of idiots? Stop the magnets, and they will have to go home. Enforce the laws for employment now and do not give me that 10th ammendment excuse!
