” Shield is the one who called opponents of in-state tuition for illegals not only heartless, but “brainless.” (See post #130)” <<<
shield is the one who can tell the difference between a state’s red ink and black ink. You red inkers would rather take an economic bath if it meant you could stroke your righteous indignation over the. These students cost you nothing. They pay their own way like everybody else, AND are seeking citizenship. Hopefully, they will stay in Texas after graduation and add to its blue ribbon JOBS count. It is idiotic to leave the children of illegals on the state dole, maybe even brainless. Some states prefer to make lemonade. Ninty-six percent of the state legislature handed this bill to Rick. What governor would throw in with the FOUR opposed. Sheesh.
What part of “illegal” don’t you understand?

They can’t legally work if they are illegals. They only have to mark that they are seeking citizenship, they don’t have to do it and most won’t. TX is just breeding smarter criminals.
Your spirited defense of illegal aliens will not go unnoticed.
1) Illegals are not SUPPOSED to be “on the dole”.
2) They are NOT “paying their way”. They are paying a small fraction of what their education costs.
3) There is NO enforcement of the wimpy little “will seek legal status as soon as possible” part of the bill.
4) Illegals are not SUPPOSED to be working.
