California Dream Act Passed

Quote:
"LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - California Governor Jerry Brown signed into law on Monday a bill allowing illegal immigrants to receive privately funded scholarships to attend the state's public colleges and universities.
The bill, dubbed the California Dream Act, passed the state Legislature earlier this month and aims at helping illegal immigrants who earned a diploma after attending at least three years of high school in the state."

Despicable.

Yet 2 of my American born and bred friends just lost theirs.

Truly horrible.

This bill was passed in Maryland as well. However, strong opposition and petitioning with signature to get it on the ballot for citizen voting was accomplished. The next round of voting coming up this will be decided by the citizenship of Maryland. Looks like it will go down in a ball of flames on that day.

The illegals can not vote. They are illegal. The decision should be left to the voting legal public. It is unfortunate that some believe all should get everything for nothing. Last time I checked, those that came through Ellis Island over 100 years ago did not get anything for nothing. These folks learned the language and became US citizens the proper way. Contact any congressman that is opposed to the legislation. Start a petition.

This is how government works...

1. The Dream Act was passed April 11th 2011

2. Govenor Eliminates the Distinguished Scholars award, which provides $3,000 annually for high-achieving students who attend Maryland universities, was part of a package of budget cuts presented by O'Malley to the General Assembly this year. Cutting the award was estimated to save the state just over $1 million.

After seeing his stupidity of granting millions to illegals for school assistance and cutting assistance to deserving legal students he does this:

Scholarships for 350 Maryland high school seniors have been restored, Gov. Martin O'Malley announced Wednesday, just days after state officials told scholarship winners they had lost the college money because of budget cuts.

This is brilliance that runs local government and also the federal government. It makes you want to cry.
