We the legal
residents of the State of NJ request that you do not support Bill # S2479
"Tuition
Equality Act"; allows certain students to qualify for in-State tuition
rates at public institutions of higher education.
Reasons
you should not support this Bill.
* A
subsidized seat for illegal aliens is a seat that is not available to a child
of a citizen and legal residents of New
Jersey . Where is your compassion for those of us who
are paying the school bills and your salaries.
*Once again
NJ State legislators are considering a bill which ignores the interest of tax
paying legal residents and ignoring the financial burden you are placing on us.
We have a broken immigration system because government officials like your
selves have not seen to it that our nation’s immigration laws have been
enforced.
* Unless the
State of New Jersey is prepared to offer in-state tuition to any legal resident
from any state, which we are sure you aren’t because it was not
mentioned in Bill # S2479, you will then be in violation of “The Illegal
Immigration Reform and Immigrant Responsibility Act of 1996” which specifies: Ignorance
of the law is no defense so read the fine print here.
“Notwithstanding
any other provision of law, an alien who is not lawfully present in the United
States shall not be eligible on the basis of residence within a State (or a
political subdivision) for any postsecondary education benefit unless a citizen
or national of the United States is eligible for such a benefit (in no less
amount, duration, and scope) without regard to whether the citizen or national
is such a resident.”
Granting in-state tuition rates to illegal
aliens would only serve to further damage and strain delicate budgets and
impose additional burdens on taxpayers, who heavily subsidize post-secondary
public education, to make up the loss. Schools, students, and taxpayers should
not be made to bear such a burden, especially considering illegal aliens have
flagrantly broken our immigration laws and have no legal right to reside in the
U.S.
Universities
are able to provide citizen and legal resident students in-state tuition rates
because public colleges and universities are heavily subsidized by taxpayer
money. Remember where that money comes from as most of you vote to spend our
money like drunken sailors.
As usual if
the shoe fits wear it.
Flip flops
are available for those who want to switch to our side.
They are
available in the Governors office.
