Quinn to sign Illinois Dream Act for scholarship money - chicagotribune.com

A spokesman says Illinois Gov. Pat Quinn will sign a bill to allow the children of immigrants, both legal and illegal, to get private college scholarships and enroll in state college savings programs.

Quinn spokesman Grant Klinzman says the governor will sign the bill Monday.

Called the Illinois Dream Act, the measure creates a panel to raise private money for college scholarships. Supporters say this will help illegal immigrants who graduate from Illinois high schools go on to college because they may otherwise not be able to afford it.

Students must have at least one immigrant parent and must have attended school in Illinois for at least three years to qualify for scholarship money.

Opponents say the legislation wrongly helps people who violate immigration laws.

Weird that they cant afford it even after not having to pay taxes....


This bill is a FAIL

Honestly the only problem I have with this is the minimum 3 years.

That should be all the way through middle school and high school.

Quinn is a moron. So are most the people running the state of Illinois.

I've got an idea, let's reward people for illegally coming to the country.

Our state is terrible thanks to the liberals. First *** unions now encouraging illegals

Let us vote!
Be legal or leave
Marriage between man and woman only

What NA laws did we break?

Gays have rights just not to marriage. Homosexuality is wrong

What NA laws did we break?

well aside from " real Americans" coming to North America and saying that they live here now, ... with this piece of legislation, none.

Gays have rights just not to marriage. Homosexuality is wrong

well, that just like your opinion man (dude voice). The state shouldnt be telling people who they can marry. None of their business.

 

[brett05]

What one does in privacy is no ones business

 

[brett05]

There should be a public vote on a national amendment

 

[brett05]

Biologically it's wrong. Spiritually it's wrong. Don't enable the behavior

 

[cubsneedmiracle]

This isn't for flaming against what other people want to do or what makes them happy either.

Keep it on topic.

 

[brett05]

I didn't flame anyone

 

[derosabomb]

lol you dont like it move the **** out of illinois, call your reps or vote for someone else next election.. otherwise stfu

 

[brett05]

We do contact our reps and we do vote against the liberal agenda

 

[brett05]

Things like this rarely come to a public vote. The liberal politicians prevent that

 

[AE23]

take all the military stationed in Iraq, Afghanistan, S. Korea, Germany, Japan etc and you can secure the borders.

I'm all for isolationism. Time to take care of our own since no one else likes our help
