Really? Was it put on a ballot for the people to vote?
No kidding!
All but 4 in their legislature voted for it and none lost their seats. It must have been something the state of Texas wanted.
We live in a representative republic. The legislature 10 years ago passed the in-state tuition. Perry said 4 voted against it; it may have been fewer because I found only 1 in the legislative log. In 2005 it was updated and that time there were ZERO votes against it. There was one lawsuit and it was withdrawn when the federal court said this was a state issue. All evidence supports Perry's contention Texans believe it's right for Texas.
Good grief, we live in a republic, not a democracy. How about understanding how our system works!
