SC law targets illegal immigrants going to school
MYRTLE BEACH, SC (AP) -- Dayana Rodrigues graduated in the top 5 percent of her high school class in 2007 and completed nursing prerequisites at Horry-Georgetown Technical College.
But The Post and Courier of Charleston reports that in January, the college refused to re-enroll the 20-year-old returning student because she is an undocumented immigrant.
The South Carolina Illegal Immigration Reform Act became law in June and, among other measures, banned illegal immigrants from attending colleges and universities that receive state money.
Supporters of the ban feel strongly that taxpayers' money should not fund a school that is educating lawbreakers. Opponents said it's unfair to punish children for their parents' crimes.
South Carolina is the first state to legalize such a ban, although other Southern states have restrictive policies.

If a young father tired of complaints goes out and steals a wide screen flat panel plasma TV for his children do the kids get to keep it because they did not do it?
I support enforcement and see its lack as bad for the 3rd World as well. Remittances are now mostly spent on consumption not production assets. Join our efforts to Secure America's Borders and End Illegal Immigration by Joining ALIPAC's E-Mail Alerts network (CLICK HERE)

This is a very common sense law. Why do we continue to let people who do not belong here get free educations and other public services that are intended for Americans and LEGAL immigrants?
