What the hell, let’s just educate, feed, and house the children of the whole world right here. It sure looks racist for Mayor Gluba and other leftists to be so accommodating to some and not others. And we sure don’t want to be accused of that particular “r” word.
Ponder these points from Conservative Daily, Back to school for Obama’s illegal aliens. The article was posted today, as part of their effort to motivate people to demand Congress empower school districts to decline to finance the education of illegal aliens.
In 1982, the Supreme Court case Plyer v. Doe decided that it was unconstitutional for states to prohibit illegal immigrants from attending public schools. Back when the illegal immigration problem wasn’t nearly as bad, the court ruled that adding a few illegals to public school classrooms wouldn’t negatively affect American students in a noticeable way. Therefore, the taxpayers had to just absorb these free-riders . . .
We have entire schools being overrun. We have classrooms that are now standing room only because the schools don’t have room to accommodate that many students. We have classrooms now where more than half of the students can’t read or write and don’t even speak English! . . .
But you see, not only are illegal alien children enrolling in her town’s schools, but illegal alien adults are enrolling as well! . . .
How can illegal alien adults get away with enrolling in public school? Wouldn’t it be obvious that they were too old?
Well, federal regulations now prohibit the schools from verifying the ages of illegal aliens. This is a new regulation released by Eric Holder’s Department of (in)Justice earlier this spring . . .
On top of that, the DOJ has also threatened fines and criminal prosecution against any school that attempts to verify an illegal’s age, residence, or even their vaccination records!
The Obama administration is telling schools to turn a blind eye to any residency requirement and just list illegals as ‘homeless’ so they can enroll. The Department of Education is telling schools to waive vaccination requirements and allow illegals to enroll in school right away . . .
We would add some clarification. Leftist like to play games with terms and classifications. The border rushers from Central America and many others are given a legal status of various sorts supposedly pending deportation processes that can take years. They have a “legal” status. Our question is why are tax payers educating any non-citizen? If an appropriate legal status pertains (not an illegal immigrant or one likely to be deported or here on a temporary basis) they can attend private schools at their own expense or as a charitable venture by those schools.
