A little late, but better late than never. Now Virginians will see exactly who represents them, who puts American citizens first, and who represents illegals.

[goldstategop]

It shouldn't be controversial. I'd like to see our leaders put Americans FIRST. We aren't asking for the moon.

no illegals in college, probably so they can have more illegal truck drivers*

suspend the business licenses of anyone convicted of hiring illegal immigrants.

I like this part of the bill.

[Thrownatbirth]

I want to remember November 2007 as the election where Virginia gave illegals the boot.

Imagine that, the criminal aliens thought paying taxes in support of higher education was not required for extracting money from those who do. Until the RAT party extends the right to vote to them, it ain’t gonna happen. When billary becomes president then the change in hand-out recipients will be inclusive of criminal aliens. Get ready folks, Hillary will be the next president and the old media is gonna make it happen, like it or not.

[B Knotts]

But the issue of denying a public college education to an illegal immigrant will probably be controversial

To whom?

Seriously, ask ten people on the street, and at least nine of them will agree that illegal aliens should not be admitted to public colleges.

How the elites think this is "controversial" shows how out of touch they are.

States Grapple With In-State Tuition for Illegal Immigrants

...the IIRIRA of 1996 bars "public colleges from favoring undocumented students by offering them in-state tuition rates and not extending that offer to U.S. citizens."

[PurpleMan]

Not better late than never. Boxing Gov. Kaine (D) into a corner to sign and incur wrath of Dem electorate or veto and incure the wrath of the Rep electorate could be quite enjoyable.

The blanket denial of bail ultimately may be ruled to be invalid under the U.S. and Virginia Constitutions, but a judge certainly could deny bail on the basis of his determination that the defendant is a flight risk.

Immigration-related bonds already are a "growth industry" for both surety entities and private recovery agents.

I received some "paper" two years ago from a large Texas bail bonding company re: five illegals who had jumped bail. I unfortunately had to decline the contract because at the time I didn't know well enough anyone who could speak various "South-of-the-border" Spanish to help me to pretext a meeting that would have led to the apprehension of the five amigos. However, that has been remedied....

Virginia’s Lt. Governor is a no-nonsense, true Republican who has his eye on the Governor’s mansion come election time in Old Virginny...

[ikka]

prohibit public colleges and universities from accepting illegal immigrants even if they attended a public high school

It doesn't ban them; it just means that the illegal has to pay the higher rate for non-US citizens, and has to get a student visa.

Stand up and be counted. Git ‘er done!!

Brilliant move here, could be just the beginning of taking the country back state by state.

[Tennessee Nana]

My American four yo grandchildcant get into public school

She was suppose to start last week and her parents have been told she has been set back onto a waiting list..

The illegal alien kids cannot be refused...

We suddenly have a influx of them into our border county..

“Va. Republican Bill Would Bar Illegal Immigrants From College”

Sounds like a good follow-up action for Gov. Blunt here in Missouri.
Seeing how he recently told Missouri law enforcement to check the
immigration status of anybody put in jail in Missouri.
