NY Dems block bill expanding college tuition for Gold Star families after approving $27M in tuition aid for illegal immigrants: report

New York Assembly Democrats on Tuesday blocked a bill that proposed expanding college tuition aid for children of deceased and disabled military veterans after-- having a week earlier-- approved a state budget that set aside $27 million in college tuition aid for illegal immigrants.

The Assembly’s Higher Education Committee voted 15 to 11 on Tuesday to shelve the bill, effectively quashing its chances of going to the floor, the Post-Standard reported.

The decision came after committee chair Deborah Glick, D-Manhattan, and Speaker Carl Heastie said $27 million from the state’s budget would go towards supporting the Jose Peralta New York State DREAM Act, which allows illegal immigrants to qualify for state aid for higher education, Newsweek reported.

  1. A vote for Democrats is a vote against America.

  2. There is something very wrong with the way these Democrats think and govern when you put the wants above the needs of people from another country or nation above your constituants and fellow citizens. This is a form of subversion and borders on treasonous actions. The only thing these illegals need from us, the taxpayers,is a one way ticket back home.This would be like watching your neighbors starve but invite a burglar to have dinner before he leaves !

  3. New Yorkers have suddenly gone so far left they are almost out of the picture. Hard to believe they are so blatantly radical with their abortion views and this tuition bill. Voters should be outraged as obviously legislators don't give a crap about life or heroes who dedicated their lives for freedom.

  4. 5:59 my thought exactly. I really don't understand Democrat's hatred for America. There are a lot of people with blinders on just being led to slaughter. I guess the idiotic PC mindset has fried their brain.

  6. Northwest Woodsman: If this is true and I have no reason to doubt it, what in the h#ll are those politicians up to and what is their objective. I am guessing that by handing out money to illegals, they as Marxist democrats will reap the benefits of securing the votes from both illegals and the rest I’d the immigrant community. They have no problem destroying our country as long as they get the votes to retain their power and financial rewards. Sad!
