18 States Offer In-State Tuition For Illegals... And Legal Residents Are Not Happy About That

The Eleventh Circuit U.S. Court of Appeals ruled that colleges in Georgia are not required to admit illegal immigrant students.

The decision further sparked a national conversation about the rights of Dreamers, as well as the legality of offering them in-state tuition benefits, which usually allow students attending college in their home states to pay far less than their peers from different states.

Citing US Code 1623, which states that anyone who is not legally a citizen cannot be entitled to any benefit that is denied to a citizen of the United States, some have questioned whether those here illegally should be offered in-state tuition rates that aren’t available to other students who are citizens. Currently, 18 states, offer some form of a pathway for in-state tuition to those living here illegally.

According to the National Conference of State Legislatures, 18 states --- California, Colorado, Connecticut, Florida, Illinois, Kansas, Maryland, Minnesota, Nebraska, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, Oregon, Texas, Utah, and Washington --- offer in-state tuition to illegal immigrant students. Two more states --- Oklahoma and Rhode Island --- offer in-state tuition to illegal immigrant students, pending approval from the Board of Regents.

Being a sanctuary State Maryland has to give them every thing. Hogan will not buck the Democrats, since his wife is an immigrant. Not even wanting to know how much more of MD he will destroy are allow the Democrats to destroy before he leaves office.

"ILLEGALS" is the key word

Traitors to this country need to be arrested prosecuted and jailed at the least.
A few public executions would go a long way to get the point across.

All Traitors in this country deserve a bullet between the eyes. There was a time in this country when men were men and they shot traitors. The Revolutionary War and the Civil War saw traitors on the firing line. This is illegal and needs to be stopped.

Sheree Sample Hughes is a traitor that voted for illegals to have in-state tuition. She also voted for Sanctuary State status.
