Newsmax - Illegals May Lose Tuition Breaks


Newsmax - Illegals May Lose Tuition Breaks:

"Nebraska lawmakers are set again to consider repealing a law that offers tuition breaks to some illegal immigrants, and the looming debate already is drawing support.

A majority of lawmakers participating in an Associated Press pre-session survey say they support rescinding the offer made after lawmakers fought to override Gov. Dave Heineman's veto to pass the law in 2006.

Of the 33 senators responding to the survey, 18 said they support repealing the measure, while six said they don't. Eight said they're unsure. One senator, Amanda McGill of Lincoln, didn't check an answer but offered a comment asking for more sanctions on businesses."
