we’d need a constitutional amendment to deal with the “anchor baby” issue given decades of jurisprudence that has been generous to such children.

until that point, anybody born in texas is deemed a citizen and gets the same entitlements.

I wasn’t talking about people born in Texas; people born in the USA are citizens, period, end of story.

I was talking about people not born in the USA who are here illegally. The wording of the article says they only had to have been here for three years to qualify for the Texas Dream Act (and the last time I checked, most college freshmen were a lot older than three).

That would imply to me that the act was specificly written to enable people here illegally to attend Texas colleges. Is that wrong?
