Rell vetoes in-state tuition rates for illegal immigrant kids – Connecticut
Tagged: children, Connecticut, studentPosted on: June 26th, 2007“Republican Gov. M. Jodi Rell vetoed a bill Tuesday that would have extended favorable in-state college tuition rates at Connecticut colleges and universities to children of illegal immigrants.
Rell said that while she is sympathetic to the plight of the students, they are living in the U.S. illegally and she does not want to encourage people to circumvent federal immigration laws.”
