    The bill to give in-state tuition to illegal immigrants passed the Senate Appropriations committee this morning on a 5-4 vote, when Democrat Senator Moe Keller joined with three Republicans in voting against SB 170. Senator Harvey was absent from the committee hearing this morning because he was out of state assisting his elderly father-in-law with a family issue.

    Everyone of those Dems who votes yes is a bigot and traitor, for supporting American subservience to "The Cosmic Race".

    Absence allows Dems to move on 'tuition equity' bill

    Tim Hoover

    A Senate committee this morning approved a bill that would grant in-state tuition to illegal immigrants, an action that Republicans said was only possible through a sneaky maneuver by Democrats.

    The Senate Appropriations Committee had been scheduled to take up the bill, Senate Bill 170, on Friday. However, Sen. Abel Tapia, D-Pueblo, earlier this week called a meeting of the committee for Wednesday, with the bill on the schedule.

    Sponsored by Sen. Chris Romer, D-Denver, the bill would grant in-state tuition to any student who had attended a Colorado high school for at least three years and graduated, regardless of their immigration status.

    The bill's prospects had looked grim heading into the Friday meeting. Though Democrats hold a 6-4 majority on the committee, Sen. Moe Keller, D-Wheat Ridge, had said she would be a no vote, likely making for a 5-5 tie, meaning the bill would have died.

    But supporters of the bill caught a lucky break. Sen. Ted Harvey, R-Highlands Ranch, last week said he would be out of town until Thursday helping his wife prepare to bring her father, who has Alzheimer's disease, to a facility in Colorado.

    When Tapia scheduled a meeting for Wednesday, Republicans said it was an obvious move to take advantage of Harvey's absence

    Republicans said their suspicions were borne out in today's hearing.

    When the bill came up, Sen. Mike Kopp, R-Littleton, asked Tapia to delay consideration of the bill until Friday, when Harvey would be back.

    Tapia said the decision on whether to delay the bill should be the sponsor's, and he put the question to Romer.

    "Why in Appropriations should we hold up a bill that has a positive fiscal impact?" Romer asked, unwilling to delay it.

    Kopp and other Republicans argued the bill would have a negative effect on the state budget because it would violate a federal law that prohibits illegal immigrants from getting benefits other Americans can't. Since students from other states can't get the in-state rate, illegal immigrants can't either, Republicans argued.

    The only way to comply with federal law is to give everyone the in-state rate, something that would cost the state more than $200 million a year in lost tuition revenue, Republicans argued.

    Despite the federal law, nine other states allow the in-state rate for illegal immigrants. A pending court challenge in California could settle the question.

    Sen. Keith King, R-Colorado Springs, offered amendments that would have given the in-state tuition rate to all foreign students and all out-of-state students. Those amendments failed.

    The committee approved the bill on a 5-4 vote, with Keller the only Democrat joining the three Republicans who were present to vote against it. The bill now can move back to the Senate floor for final approval, where debate could be testy.

    "I'm really disappointed," King said after the meeting. "The bill would have died if he (Harvey) would have been here today."

    He said there was a deliberate strategy by Democrats to take advantage of Harvey's absence.

    "They could have easily put the bill back on (the committee schedule) on Friday," King said.


    Tapia said he scheduled the meeting in an attempt to ease a backlog of bills that had stacked up on the committee's agenda.

    Romer also said after the hearing that there was nothing underhanded on the part of Democrats. He said Republicans could have assigned another one of their members to take Harvey's place

    "They (Republicans) knew the bill was on the (committee schedule)," Romer said. "They have the right to appoint another member to the committee. They chose not to."

    Not so, Republicans countereed, and Democrats know it.


    "They announced the change of date yesterday, and a change of committee assignment requires a resolution, which has to be calendared -- so it takes two days," Senate Minority Leader Josh Penry said. "They gamed the system and exploited Sen. Harvey's difficult personal situation with real, shall we say, audacity."

    This one needs to go to the U.S. Supreme Court.
