A Texas A&M conservative group has started an online petition for a special legislative session to end Texas’ in-state tuition rates for illegal immigrants at Texas public colleges. Perry’s taken a lot of fire for the position, which has come up repeatedly in the GOP debates. The student group, Texas Aggie Conservatives, hits on a lot of the arguments Perry’s run into:
“It is outrageous that Texas A&M, because of Gov. Perry, is awarding those who violated the law with in-state tuition and financial aid,” said Steven Schroeder, chairman of the Texas Aggie Conservatives. “The Texas government, especially in these troubling economic times, should not be subsidizing the higher education of adults who cannot legally work in the United States.”
