Foes aim to repeal in-state tuition for illegal immigrants’ kids TOPEKA | With anti-illegal immigration sentiment high and conservatives firmly in power, critics of a Kansas law granting in-state tuition to children of illegal immigrants hope this is the year legislators vote to repeal. A bill to do just that already has more than two dozen sponsors in the Kansas House. At a hearing on the bill Tuesday, critics of the 2004 law said it gives an unfair subsidy to people who are breaking a law just by living in Kansas. Kansas Secretary of State Kris Kobach, one of the law’s loudest opponents, noted that foreign students living in the U.S. on a student visa aren’t eligible for the tuition break, but undocumented residents are. “If you’re breaking federal law, you’re eligible for in-state tuition, but if you follow federal law, too bad, you don’t get the benefit,” he said. “To me that’s shocking.” The law grants in-state tuition to the children of illegal immigrants who graduate from a Kansas high school and pledge that they intend to become citizens. Last fall 413 students received the benefit while studying at state universities or junior colleges. The law passed the Legislature in 2004 when Democrat Kathleen Sebelius was governor. Previous attempts to repeal the law never succeeded. Read more: http://www.kansascity.com/2011/02/08/2642322/foes-aim-to-repeal-in-state-tuition.html#ixzz1Db2k9x8K

• Answer:

  brucec83 You don't know a lot about law, do you? The Illegal Immigration Reform and Immigrant Responsibility Act of 1996. In relevant part, section 505 provides that: Notwithstanding any other provision of law, an alien who is not lawfully present in the United States shall not be eligible on the basis of residence within a State (or a political subdivision) for any postsecondary education benefit unless a citizen or national of the United States is eligible for such a benefit (in no less an amount, duration, and scope) without regard to whether the citizen or national is such a resident. Under U.S. law, illegal aliens may not hold any job in the United States. Thus, tax dollars expended on higher education illegal aliens to prepare them for professional careers serves only to draw more illegal aliens to those states offering in-state tuition. When an illegal alien is granted in-state tuition and admission to a state university, he or she is directly competing with American students for that educational slot. This competition is unfairly biased against American students in other states who must pay out-of-state tuition to attend the university, while the illegal alien student is given in-state tuition preference.
