June 27, 2011: Walker Revokes In-state Tuition For Undocumented Students Attending Univ And Colleges In Wisconsin "- On Sunday, Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker (R) signed his two-year 2011-2013 budget, which included ending in-state tuition for undocumented students attending public universities and colleges. In-state tuition for undocumented students was approved two years ago by former Governor Jim Doyle (D) after the Hispanic community struggled for 10 years to pass it."...
March 2015:“We strongly dispute this account. Governor Walker has been very clear that he does not support amnesty and believes that border security must be established and the rule of law must be followed. His position has not changed, he does not support citizenship for illegal immigrants, and this story line is false,” she announced in an email to journalists Thursday afternoon.”
“I made it clear that for me, if somebody wants to be a citizen, they need to go back to their country of origin, get in line, no preferential treatment,” Walker said. “In terms of what to do beyond that, again, that’s something we got to work with Congress on.”
So are you saying the information cited in post #5 isn’t true? There are a few years in between 2011 and March of THIS year that seem to not be discussed much now.
I remember watching a video of an interview with him where his views on ‘pathways’ troubled me a lot. Even he, by some accounts, admits his views have changed because he got more information. That’s why I give him the benefit of the doubt, frankly and don’t really ascribe to trashing him. I’d rather we all devote our time to trashing Jeb Bush, frankly.
But to include the concluding paragraph of his “I made it clear that for me....” seems a bit misleading. In the years before this March, I don’t think it was that clear at all.
