Call for CO Today over Illegal Tuition Benefits!!
Now it is time to act! Please call today and/or first thing tomorrow morning. Details below.
Senate Bill 170 would allow any student who had attended a Colorado high school for at least three years and graduated to receive taxpayer-sponsored in-state tuition. The Senate Education Committee approved the bill and it is going to the senate floor tomorrow (Tuesday) for a second reading.
See the Denver Post article Another guilt trip, anyone?, by Al Knight.
Since the bill was passed out of committee on party line vote (with Dems in favor of subsidizing illegal aliens) please call today and/or early tomorrow morning (Tuesday):

3. It also can't hurt to call if your Senator is Republican.
Tell them you support their position against giving taxpayer-subsidized in-state tuition to illegal aliens.
These are desperate economic times when families can not even afford to send their own children to college. Our Colorado Senate should not be allowed to give in-state tuition to illegal aliens who can not even work here legally!
Please call today. Your call is very important!
