Illegal Immigrants to Pay More at New Jersey College

RANDOLPH, N.J. -- Illegal immigrants will no longer pay in-county tuition to attend the County College of Morris.

The board of trustees on Wednesday reversed a policy it approved in February that ended a 10-year ban on admission imposed after the 9-11 attacks for illegal immigrants who live in Morris County. The board granted said they could pay lower in-county rates.

Freeholders had asked the trustees to reconsider, saying the board didn't want to supplement illegal immigrants' tuitions with taxpayer money.
The Daily Record of Parsippany reported the vote to charge out-of-state tuition came after nearly four hours of discussion.

Chairwoman Elaine Johnson and Michael Van Allen voted for the lower rates.

In California, undocumented workers / illegal immigrants get to pay "in-state" (subsidized) tuition for State Universities, while students from, say, Nevada, have to pay a much higher rate.

This doesn't seem to be the best use of limited taxpayer dollars in an era of cuts to higher education.

You are so polite, molly.
;D

It is not right to American working family's trying to get a higher education for their own children. They can not get any assistance other than loans on already borrowed money.

...molly is polite... while I, otoh, would ask colleges to be prosecuted as accessories to a crime for not reporting these "students" to the INS...

Me, too.

[workpublic]

illegals can quickly/easily be uniformed and armed to help the feds quell "unrest" caused by the citizen "terrorists" if we ever raise up

it's just one of the reasons why treasonous politicos back the illegals over the citizens.

Karma in 10 minutes, work.

[hello fromWarsaw]

There will be an amnesty, so we might as well educate them. I very much doubt they get a better deal than our citizens. Maybe we should concentrate on getting the whole country back to # 1 on grads, instead of turning on each other, as mega rich greedy Pubs want, while enriching their pals. Oh right, the Dems are...guess they don't cover that on bought off, incompetent Fox...

[hello fromWarsaw]

Try making your hypocrite Pub heroes crack down on illegal work after the amnesty this time ;D

Way to go NJ.

Is this what you were referring to?

[Bluerobin]

Why are they accomodating the illegals by allowing them to attend? Report them to ICE and deport them!

Thanks from a N.J. resident. Corzine tried to push in state tuition for illegals on us when he was in, but he couldn't muster up the votes because the citizens were so much against it.

Christie usually supports amnesty, but is against in state tuition because he knows he's toast if he tries to push it on us.

If you're an out of state, native born resident then you have to pay almost $300.00 more per credit if you want to go to school here.

Illegal Immigrant=First Class Citizen. Native Born American=Second Class Citizen.

Well W, they've already tried three times, twice when Bush was in office (comprehensive immigration reform, dream act), and then once with Obama with the dream act again.

And all three times we the people shouted out NO.

We already have too many grads without jobs, so we are going to force their parents to pay for in state tuition for illegals, who will then work for less then their kids when they graduate?

Mega rich? You mean like Soros, Kerry, Feinstein, Buffet...

Groups File Lawsuit to Block Utah Immigration Law
Published May 03, 2011
| Associated Press
SALT LAKE CITY -- Immigrant and civil rights groups filed a lawsuit Tuesday to try to block a Utah immigration law that they say will create a police state and is too much like one of the most controversial parts of Arizona's immigration law, which is also before the courts.
The Utah law, signed by Gov. Gary Herbert in March, requires people to prove their citizenship if they're arrested for a felony or class-A misdemeanor.
Marielena Hincapie, executive director of the National Immigration Law Center, said it violates civil rights and other constitutional protections because it could lead to police requiring everyone they pull over to prove their legal presence in the country.
"This is racial profiling and civil rights violations at its worst," Hincapie said.
The law center and the American Civil Liberties Union filed suit Tuesday in federal court in Salt Lake City. They're seeking an immediate injunction against the law, which is set to take effect May 10.
