Maryland may join 10 other states in allowing illegal immigrants to qualify for in-state tuition rates at the state's public colleges.
Democratic Delegate Victor R. Ramirez claims " We're allowing people to cut our yards, wash our cars, clean our houses for probably very cheap wages, the least you can do is let their children have an opportunity , that's the American way."
My question was directed at using EMPLOYERS of illegal immigrants as an excuse. The employers should punished for hiring illegals not as a whitewash to getting illegals more benefits.
Isn't that just giving employers that hire illegals an out ?
Or in some twisted fashion justification for breaking the law when they hire illegal workers - they not only get cheap labor but their children are being USED as legislative leverage ?
