"Their agenda calls for more effective programs"
more money taken away from US citizen children and given to teaching illegal alien anchor babies.
"They also called for universal access to education"
Allow illegal aliens and their anchor babies to get an education at our expense.
"and affordable tuition rates for college students. "
In state tuition for illegal aliens.
I was born in Los Angeles, CA. I lived there the first 25 years of my life. If I went back there and went to college, I would get charged out of state tuition, yet an illegal alien gets 1-to go to college in the first place, 2- instate tuition. B.S!
