Rep. Hunter to Calif. governor: Nix illegal immigrants instead of cutting middle class scholarships

We still have a few good common sense politicians in CA that fight for our citizens.

Before California strips middle class families of assistance for college tuition, it should first cancel tuition benefits it pays out to illegal immigrants who attend the state’s public universities, a key congressman said Wednesday.

Gov. Jerry Brown has proposed phasing out the Middle Class Scholarship program, saying money needs to go to the poorest families instead.

“I struggle to understand the justification for putting illegal immigrants ahead of middle class American families,” said Rep. Duncan Hunter, a California Republican, in a letter to Mr. Brown. “Doing so puts a clear, undue burden on the backs of hard-working families in our state while further incentivizing illegal immigration with the promise of education benefits.”

Mr. Hunter earlier this year introduced a bill to punish sanctuary campuses that protect illegal immigrants, shielding them from federal immigration agents. The bill would also strip federal funds from sanctuaries.

In his letter he asked Mr. Brown to disclose how much California expects to spend on illegal immigrant students.

GO HUNTER GO!!!!

Wonder if the governor will respond to his letter? Heard someone on the radio say they think part of the reason the middle class scholarships are phasing out is because our middle class is shrinking, many have left the state. Don't know if that is true but still even if it is how can the governor justify taking money away from citizens and give tuition benefits to illegals. So many things are upside down.

Drug cartels who lobby on behalf of their people. People don't' understand how vast these cartels are, how much money they have, how long-range their thinking and planning is. This is a $300 billion plus a year tax-free industry. The drug business across the southern border is bigger than the entire legitimate business exports from Mexico to the United States.

E-verify ALL public taxpayer funded schools and those who apply for assistance.

NO enrollment, no assistance, no money to illegal aliens.

Stop the States from aiding and abetting illegal aliens.




TWEET Trump...E-verify ALL government benefit programs, including public schools. No illegal aliens!
