Maryland Immigrant Tuition Foes Claim 40,000 Names

ANNAPOLIS, Md. (AP) - Opponents of a new Maryland law enabling certain illegal immigrants to pay in-state college tuition say they have exceeded the number of signatures needed to clear the first hurdle of their petition drive.

The group led by Washington County Republican Delegate Neil Parrott says it will give the secretary of state at least 40,000 signatures by Tuesday night. They needed to collect at least 18,579 valid signatures by Tuesday, and a total of 56,000 by the end of June to bring the issue to a referendum next year.
