KS: Critics of immigrant tuition law push for repeal
Critics of immigrant tuition law push for repeal

TOPEKA, KS
Opponents of a Kansas law that allows some illegal immigrants to pay the same tuition as legal residents at state universities and colleges are pushing hard to get the statute repealed.
But this year, their chances are much better because the Kansas House is more conservative and Republican Kris Kobach, a critic of the law, has taken office as secretary of state.
The House Federal and State Affairs Committee opened hearings Tuesday on a bill repealing the 2004 law, hearing from critics of the statute. Supporters of the law are scheduled to testify Wednesday.
Critics say the law is very unfair to out-of-state or foreign students who come to Kansas and further encourages illegal immigration.
Supporters say the young people it helps often have lived in the state for years.
