California 'Dream Act' Will Help Cover Tuition for Illegal Immigrants

(SACRAMENTO, California) -- Illegal immigrants will be able to apply for financial aid and merit-based scholarships to help pay their way through California's public colleges and universities, now that Gov. Jerry Brown this weekend signed the state's groundbreaking and controversial Dream Act, which ramps up existing allowances for the students in question.

Since 2001, California law has extended in-state tuition rates to illegal immigrants as long as they have attended a California high school for at least three years, earned a high school diploma or GED and have proof that they are working to obtain citizenship. Under rules newly signed by Brown, beginning Jan. 1, 2012, illegal immigrants can apply for and receive scholarships derived from non-state funds and, beginning Jan. 1, 2013, for financial aid partially comprised of state funds.

"The future of California's economy depends on the ability of these students to graduate, to perform well and to contribute. This creates an opportunity," Assemblyman Gil Cedillo, a Democrat from Los Angeles who sponsored the 2012 measure, told ABC News affiliate KABC-TV.

Dream Act supporters have said they also will push for illegal immigrants to become eligible for driver licenses, a next move in a bid for full U.S. citizenship for illegal immigrants.

Therein lies the problem, said Mark Krikorian, executive director of the Center for Immigrant Studies, a non-partisan Washington, D.C., research organization whose tagline is "Low-immigration, Pro-immigrant."

"The reason [the Dream Act] matters," Krikorian said, "is that it's an attempt to legitimize the presence of illegal immigrants...People say, 'How can you object to letting the young people who are living here get tuition?'

"That's a different debate than the one over whether or not to legalize immigration...The point of [the Dream Act] is not to give financial aid to a few students but to create political momentum in Washington for amnesty for all illegal immigrants," he continued.

Resistance to laws akin to California's Dream Act remain considerable, Krikorian said, citing a November 2012 Maryland vote on a law -- approved in April -- that would extend in-state tuition to illegal immigrant students who can show that they, or their parents, paid taxes during the past three years.

It also required Illegal immigrant males to enlist in the Selective Service System for being drafted into the military.

Jerry Brown is simply doing what Socialists since Karl Marx and Joseph Lenin have always done best.

What we see here is what is left of a conscience in California. I can't count the number of times Californians have labored to get MILLIONS of signatures on California state referendums to turn this socialist monster back into the abyss. Each time, a liberal federal circuit judge would slam their faces straight into the hot asphalt of organized socialism, and we see it now throughout the United States.

God help California. This is a new recall effort, and hopefully one of many more to follow.

Dream Act passed in California: could Arizona be next?

PHOENIX (KPHO) -
The Dream Act just came true for kids in California.

Some illegal immigrants in our neighboring state can now get taxpayer money for their college tuition.

We all know it's a long shot that Arizona's lawmakers would follow suit, and a lot of you like it that way, but some students are hopeful this will revive the debate. But, those who do not agree say it's clearly breaking the law.

"I love being here," said German Cadenas. So many so called "dreamers" say the same thing. They all support the Dream Act. "I think this is the best country in the world,"said Cadenas.

But Cadenas is an undocumented student. His family came here from Venezuela when he was 15 years old. That means he does not qualify for federal or state financial aid.

"This is a place where you can be free. You can be who you are," said Cadenas.

And in his opinion, being who you are means getting a college education. "I want to do things that are not just going to benefit me as an immigrant but I want to do things that are going to benefit the society at large regardless of immigration status," he said.

Cadenas is 24 and is enrolled in a PhD program at ASU. He has paid his own way, but would love to see a Dream Act passed in Arizona just like in California.

Gov. Jerry Brown passed legislation that would allow illegal immigrant students to receive state funded scholarships and financial aid.

But not everyone agrees. "It's illegal," said Michelle Dallacroce. She is the President and founder of Mothers Against Illegal Amnesty.

"The taxpayers of the United State, the politicians of the United Stated need to get away from the warm and fuzzy sad stories of people that are illegally in the United States," she said.

She says it's not about who you are or what you want to do, it's about the law.

"You are illegally in the United States and you are taking a spot away from my child, my neighbor's child, every American child that belongs in the school that you want to attend," said Dallacroce.

There are some provisions for the Dream Act passed in California. You have to meet the same requirements as other applicants, but would only qualify for financial aid after all other legal residents have applied.

Texas passed the DREAM Act 10 years ago

and still has it.

And Per TEXAS TOAST, "You are Heartless if you are NOT in favor of utilizing Taxpayer Funds to reward the ILLEGALS and the Children of ILLEGALS for invading the United States".

But Texas Toast has NO compassion for LEGAL Citizen students!
