In-State Tuition Rate for Illegal Immigrants; House to Vote Again – Utah
Tagged: UtahPosted on: January 31st, 2007“On a tie vote, the Utah House defeated an attempt Tuesday to repeal cheaper in-state college tuition for illegal immigrants — an issue that is certain to come up again.
The House voted 37-37, with Rep. Keith Grover, R-Provo, absent. He was the most sought-after lawmaker, with rumors he was expected back later in the day denied by House Speaker Greg Curtis, who excused him for some personal business.
Grover, a co-sponsor of the repeal, is expected to cast the deciding vote this week to take away a benefit the Legislature granted five years ago to illegal immigrants who aren’t born here but graduate from a Utah high school.”
