Obama prepares schools for migrant kids
The Hill ^ | August 14, 2014 | By Mario Trujillo

The Obama administration is preparing the nation’s schools to accept thousands of new students who illegally crossed the southwest border and are now awaiting trials on their possible deportations.

A fact sheet from the Department of Education sent to states and schools on Monday highlights the children’s right to attend public school.

It says all children in the United States “are entitled to equal access to a public elementary and secondary education, regardless of their or their parents’ actual or perceived national origin, citizenship, or immigration status.”

The prospect of tens of thousands of children mostly from Central American countries attending school as they wait for their immigration status to be decided has the potential to be explosive after this summer’s emotional public debate about the border.

What muslim said a few years ago - about coming for our

would go about hurting them.

A better way would be to confiscate ten per cent of local and state educational funds and send it to other countries to teach their children there...

Seriously, have these forced resettlements ever been judicially considered under the ‘takings clause’?

The schools have no choice as the Supreme Court ordered public schools to accept illegals.

What enforcement does SCOTUS have? What could they do if the systems said, "No."

Run a search on "Little Rock" + "1957" + "101st Airborne".

If enough school districts said no, there aren't enough troops to play Little Rock. Plus, this is a different time. Enough folks are beyond po’d about the whole thing.

You don’t need troops. There are enough federal marshals available for a president to enforce a Supreme Court edict.

The last time schools refused to carry out SCOTUS orders concerning admissions, the FEDS send in troops.
