Speech #1100110832

It rewards the wrong thing. and in the end. it would not be tolerated by the public if they begin to understand what this really means. The Department of Homeland Security. Michael Chertoffs DHS. under this DREAM Act would not be able to go in and use any of the records. and so if they want to protect this society. if they want to go in and apply the law. they cant even look at the records that are there that are part of the data thats compiled to grant this supercitizenship to people who are eligible for deportation. And I say supercitizenship. Mr. Speaker. because this supercitizenship path. by the way. grants more rights. special rights to illegal aliens to go to school in our institutions of higher learning at a tuition discount. For example. if you have a legal alien. someone who has applied for a student visa or has lawful. permanent status. lawful permanent residency here in the United States. a green card. and theyre going to school at an outofstate institution. they have to pay the outofstate tuition rate. If someone comes in from Korea or Guatemala or lets say Russia. Poland. comes into the United States legally. student visa or under a green card. maybe even in a path to citizenship. and they have a residency in New Jersey. they cant go to school in New York with an instate tuition discount. and they sure in the world cant go to school in California for $3.000 because theyll be considered an outofstate resident and they will be. Thats the way it is for American citizens. both naturally born and naturalized. Thats the way it is for people who have followed and respected and honored our immigration laws. whether theyre on a student visa or whether theyre here on lawful permanent residency. a green card. They all have to follow the laws of this country. and they all have to pay the going rate that reflects their residency of their State. And consider. Mr. Speaker. if you will. consider the children of military families. whether or not theyve lost a parent in this global war on terror. Those children move around a lot. and some of them dont qualify necessarily for the instate tuition discount maybe anywhere. and they would be paying a premium as a son or a daughter of our military veterans. sitting next to a desk of someone who before this act would be passed today will be unlawfully present in the United States. subject to deportation who would end up getting a discount for the tuition. This is the bill. Mr.
