Kansas: House returns illegal-immigrant bill to committee
Tagged: citizenship, KansasPosted on: March 28th, 2007“Legislation denying immigrants public assistance such as welfare and unemployment benefits and increasing penalties for employers hiring them was rejected twice Tuesday by the House, effectively ending debate for the year.
The bill also would have repealed a 2004 law that grants lower, in-state tuition to illegal immigrants who graduate from a Kansas high school and are seeking citizenship while attending a state community college or university. Numerous efforts to repeal that law failed in the House last year.”
