Breaking: The Illinois Senate just passed legislation allowing out-of-state illegal immigrants to receive in-state tuition rates at all Illinois public universities.
……According to an update from
Illinois State Senator Andrew Chesney
The vote: 38 Yes (all Democrats)
19 No (all Republicans)
Illinois taxpayers will be responsible for funding this measure through increased taxes.
Chesney says:
“You can’t make this stuff up.
The university bureaucracies love it because it means more revenue. Illinois families get the bill. At a time when tuition is already too high, Springfield is once again putting everyone else ahead of the taxpayers who actually live here.
I voted no.”
Thank you Senator Chesney and all the Republicans who voted no.
