Catholics vs. Tea Party re: Maryland Dream Act

And the winner is, based on humanity, faith and sheer intelligent pragmatism- The Catholic Diocese in Maryland.

This organization has been seeking to educate their congregants about the Dream Act, at first urging them not to sign a petition bringing it to referendum and then, voting against the repeal now that it is on the ballot.

The Dream Act allows undocumented students to attend our Community Colleges, paying in-state tuition; if their parents pay taxes and they have attended a high school here for at least 3 years.

And the Tea Party, various groups, Delegate Parrott- R. Washington Co- as well as some citizens are up in arms.

ANY Church that gets involved with Politics, should loose it's non-profit status. Their saposed to be in the business of saving souls, not politics.

But a person that lives in DE, owns properties and a business in MD must pay out of state tuition for their children to go to college in MD!
