Thread: POP the cork Arnold vetos CA dream act

Office of the Governor :: Press Release To the Members of the California State Senate:
I am returning Senate Bill 1 without my signature.
At a time when segments of California public higher education, the University of
California and the California State University, are raising fees on all students attending
college in order to maintain the quality of education provided, it would not be prudent to
place additional strain on the General Fund to accord the new benefit of providing state
subsidized financial aid to students without lawful immigration status. Under existing
law, undocumented students, who meet the required criteria, already qualify for the lower
in-state tuition rate while attending California public colleges and universities.
Therefore, I cannot sign this bill.
Sincerely,
Arnold Schwarzenegger

Oh, thank goodness.
After what he did with the rental bill I was really worried he had totally lost his way.
Thank you for the good news caasduit.

Schwarzenegger Vetoes DREAM Act
Written by Jason Kobely, Internet News Producer


Oct 13, 2007
Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger Saturday vetoed the so-called Dream Act, legislation that would have provided college aid for illegal immigrant students who graduate from California high schools.

"It would not be prudent to place additional strain on the General Fund to accord the new benefit of providing state subsidized financial aid to students without lawful immigration status," Schwarzenegger wrote in his veto message. Those students already qualify for the lower in-state tuition rate, Schwarzenegger continued.

The measure by Sen. Gil Cedillo, D-Los Angeles, would have made state grants or community college fee waivers to immigrant students who attended a California high school for three years and graduated.

Schwarzenegger vetoed a similar bill last year.

BRAVO Arnold, for stating the obvious!

If they're already getting in-state tuiton, why are they pushing this bill? Hmmm...could it be something else they want?

Well, this is good news!

YYYYYYYYYYYEEEEEEPPPPPPPPPPPP HHHHHHHHHHHUUUUUUUUURRRRRRRRRRRA !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

California was hoping Durban's DREAM Act would pass to take the pressure off of Califoria and throw it onto all of Americas tax payers back ... Well hey, when you can spread the cost across America it would keep Califorina from going bankrupt...

Arnold would love to have us pay for his states mistake and providing numerous aid packages to ILLEGAL ALIENS that normal tax payers have to fight for

YEEEAAAAAHHHHH!!!!!!!


OMG I AM SO HAPPY ABOUT THIS. I SENT SO MANY EMAILS FOR THIS. YES!!!!!
