Lawmakers approve financial aid to illegal immigrants in California

Tagged: , ,
“It is one small measure to help these kids that are working their butts off to live the American dream,”

“Students who came to the country illegally could apply for state financial aid when they attend California colleges and universities under legislation approved Tuesday by the Assembly in a party-line vote.

Supporters said immigrant children who have graduated and completed at least three years of high school in California should not be penalized for their parents’ decision to bring them to the U.S. illegally.”
