Warning: US Senate Amnesty bill includes in-state tuition fo
Warning! US Senate Amnesty bill contains in-state tuition for illegal aliens!
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
4/4/2006
Contact: William Gheen, Americans for Legal Immigration (ALIPAC)
WilliamG@alipac.us (866) 329-3999
The controversial proposal to give illegal aliens taxpayer subsidized in-state tuition at American universities is included in the immigration "reform" bill that also contains the Guest Worker Amnesty proposals according to the Washington Times!
Nine states allow illegal aliens to receive the in-state tuition rates, but the law is under challenge in those states and most slipped the provision in with little or no public input. In states where public debate occurred, the measure failed in NC, FL, GA, and VA. In liberal Massachusetts the measure failed by a graphic 96-57 in the House.
"If this bill passes, the American taxpayers will be forced to pay for illegal aliens to replace their own children in the limited seats in college" says William Gheen of ALIPAC. "Professional polls in North Carolina show over 81% opposition to in-state tuition for illegal aliens. It is bad enough the Senate is proposing Guest Worker Amnesty. Now they want us to pay college tuition for illegal aliens!"
Under the provisions of this bill, illegal aliens would be given preference over American students that are required to pay higher tuition rates when they attend public colleges away from their home state. Taxpayers would have to pay for expanded services in universities. Some universities would give even further benefits in admissions and financial aid due to the minority status of the applicants. In-state tuition costs American taxpayers thousands of dollars per year per student.
"American families have spent generations building these Universities." Gheen says. "It is a national tragedy the US Senate is even considering giving these finite resources to foreign nationals that broke our laws."
Americans for Legal Immigration Political Action Committee is calling on all Americans that oppose Amnesty and In-State tuition for illegal aliens to contact every member of Congress and demand they vote "No" on these measures. Contact information and instructions can be found at the ALIPAC website at http://www.alipac.us William Gheen and ALIPAC played a key roll in defeating in-state tuition for illegals in North Carolina.

It would be helpful to provide the Senate number of bill or amendment you are referring to, or a link to the Washington Times article that might have that information. Also the Section number is needed!
For example I did find Section 631 and 641 in Senator Specter's amendment, SA 3192, which certainly appear to be an attempt to "buy support" for the amendment from immigrant groups. I believe that immigrant groups are vehemently opposed to any "Guest Worker" program.
SEC. 631. HIGHER EDUCATION ASSISTANCE.
Provides to aliens who become lawful permanent residents (an important part of Specter's amendment):
1. Federal student loans, with exceptions.
2. Specified federal work-study programs.
3. Federal services under such title IV - I don't know what that is.
Comment: obviously this means less student loans, etc. for American citizens!
SEC. 641. GRANTS TO SUPPORT PUBLIC EDUCATION AND COMMUNITY TRAINING.
Provides federal grants exclusively to non-profits, who must have the same ethnic mix as the immigrants, educational and legal benefits for illegals and others.
Comment: states, counties and municipalities are NOT ELIGIBLE for these federal grants. But again they don't rally support for Specter's amendment, do they!

Thanks Rebel and John.
I'm about to call the Fox network to see if I can determine if they are reporting this news or just running the online poll that shows 98% opposition to the measure.
John, please keep posting this out there on other boards. I hope more people here will help you with that effort.
Rebel, Please make sure every single member of Congress gets this you can. I know others here will have to do the same if we hope to reach them and have them listen.
