ALIPAC’s President, William Gheen, issued this statement today in response to El Pueblo’s press conference and the filing of a House bill that would deprive legal NC students from a college education at taxpayer expense.

“The overwhelming majority of North Carolina’s taxpayers will not support this bill,� says William Gheen (President of ALIPAC). “This bill will eventually displace thousands of our citizens in college. We have one of the fastest growing populations of illegal immigrants in our state. Can you imagine what the flood will be like when Central American newspapers announce “Come to NC for subsidized college access!�

Americans for Legal Immigration PAC is scheduling “Town Meetings� across the state to warn North Carolinians of the impact of this bill. Meetings have been scheduled in Raleigh, Winston Salem, Monroe, Greenville, Washington, and Asheville North Carolina. More town meetings will be added shortly.

“We are going to rally the state to defeat this bill and insist that our lawmakers respect the majority of their legal constituents.� Says Gheen. “I feel that any lawmaker that supports this bill will be looking for a new job after the 2006 elections.�

Mr. Gheen is available for comment at the General Assembly today.
