Education Secretary: “A Travesty” That Taxpayers Don’t Aid Illegal Immigrants
by Caroline May
9 Oct 2015
Illegal immigrant students should have access to federal financial aid, according to Education Secretary Arne Duncan.
“The fact that as a nation we have yet to do that is a travesty,” he told the Congressional Hispanic Caucus Institute’s annual conference earlier this week.
“We cut off our nose to spite our face. Think of young people, who this is their country they’ve grown up in, the country they love, they have worked hard, they have gotten great grades, they’ve been community leaders, they’ve contributed and the fact that we don’t give them the chance to go to college makes no sense whatsoever,” he said, in a video of his address to the caucus conference Wednesday, captured by PJ Media.
Illegal immigrants are not eligible for federal financial aid. However, they can get financial aid through state or college funds. Some states also grant illegal immigrants favorable in-state tuition rates.
The retiring cabinet member sees the dearth of financial aid for illegal immigrants as “absolutely backwards.”
“We are nowhere near where we need to be and as a nation we have to break through,” he said.
Duncan also called for more action on gun control. “There is a level of death that our nation has accepted that simply isn’t accepted in Australia and Canada and England and Japan and other countries. They just don’t accept it and their children grow up with a much greater sense of security, a sense of being cared for and a chance to be successful” he said.
Duncan is slated to step down as education secretary in December.

Gee it is so tough for the illegal aliens kids who have shown utter contempt for our national sovereignty when they sneak across the border, become permanent squatters, take jobs American kids should have, get food stamps (by a system that it is designed to let them cheat) get $100,000 worth of free education (K-12) that their parents never paid taxes for, get to pay reduced rate instate tuition in colleges they should not even be attending, when real American citizens from different states must pay a higher rate. Poor son of Jose life is so tough for them hiding in the shadows while publicly bragging that they are illegally here.
These Marxists Democrats are so full of crap.

Illegal aliens need to go back to their homelands and apply for financial aid in their own country to go to schools there.
