As Kris Kobach, visiting fellow at the Heritage Foundation, points out, a student from Missouri attending the University of Kansas with not so much as a parking ticket is charged three times the tuition as an illegal alien whose very presence is a violation of federal criminal law. Durbin wants to extend this nationwide.
Break this nation's laws, don't get caught, and U.S. taxpayers struggling to send their own kids to college, many taking out loans, will subsidize your kid's education as he takes up the spot that might have gone to the child of a veteran from, say, Operation Iraqi Freedom, who can't afford it because he or she was born in, say, Illinois.
Americans are beginning to wonder what benefits accrue to being a U.S. citizen when illegal aliens and their offspring are treated better than law-abiding citizens?

Ok, to be quite honest with you, I haven't heard a lot about the DREAM act until recently. If this article sums up that act rather adequately, then what a crock of sh*t! MY kids, who were born and raised in the U.S. by two 100% born and raised U.S. citizens, had honestly BETTER have a better chance at a higher education than someone who is here ILLEGALLY and continues to break the law on a DAILY basis. And NOT have to have PROOF that they were here before 16? Awesome, so I guess we just "crown" them all citizens now then huh?

The dream act is only a dream for the illegals. For the American tax payers and the students that will lose out to the illegals both in terms of aid and dollars it is nightmare

Between this and AgJobs we would pretty much be giving them all amnesty.
here's how the illegals think on the matter...

scroll down to my response and see how it will affect American children who want an education and need financial aid.

I am embarrassed to admit that he is from my state of Illinois. I did not vote for him, and I will never vote for this traitor to his constituents.
