You didn’t contrast their positions on immigration.

Because, aside from signing a residency bill for in-state tuition, there really isn't an issue?

The in-state residency is something Texans were going to have to deal with anyway: they were already here (at least 3 years), we could not deport them (Feds rule), and it was a way of ensuring that they would apply for citizenship.

Please see post #37.

So you decided to offer illegal aliens in-state tuition to give them an incentive to apply for citizenship? LMAO!

How about the hundreds of thousands of foreigners overseas, who have been patiently waiting in line for years, jumping through all the hoops to apply for *legal* entry into the USA. Does Texas offer them or their kids in-state tuition?

Is it any wonder when some of them ask, Just why are we doing this "the right way" again? When those who break the law and jump to the head of the line are rewarded for thwarting the law and we're left with jack $hit?

No, no perverse incentive there, my FRiend....
