Education Secretary Betsy DeVos under fire for saying schools can report undocumented students

There is nobody in our southern Arizona high school district that doesn’t know multiple people list PO boxes in San Luis AZ as their residence. It is in your face fraud on both sides of the equation.

“Where do they get all that money?”

We had a “family” renting in our neighborhood.

Three families renting a rambler to save on rent.
Probably working under the table so no taxes.
No reported “income” so getting welfare, free school lunches, etc.

They still had enough money to park two Escalades and two new Chevy pickups and a couple of other cars on the driveway and lawn. And probably sent a bunch back home to Mexico. (Money from relatives in the USA is Mexico’s second largest source of “income” next to oil/gas iirc).

In New York City it is $24,000 per student.

Failure to report is conspiracy and obstruction of justice. There is no doubt about that. Is that criminal behavior what we want to teach children?

“Three families renting a rambler to save on rent.”

I don’t know what a “rambler” is in this context.

“No reported “income” so getting welfare, free school lunches, etc.”

I guess nobody’s checking for fraud.

“They still had enough money to park two Escalades and two new Chevy pickups and a couple of other cars on the driveway and lawn.”

Where do they get financing? Or do they have $60k to plonk down?

Illegal aliens should not be allowed in our schools.

Rambler as in one floor, no basement and small. Three bedrooms, 900 square feet.

On the other hand, 200 feet away is another Hispanic neighbor. Own their home, decent average cars, and they are ALWAYS out there making improvements to the yard. I got to say, all of the Hispanics that I’ve worked with (and here legally) - they ARE hard workers.

"Let me just remind Madam Chair that immigration law is federal law," he said. "It's not a local law. It's not governed by a municipality."

Too funny - I guess this person has problems with sanctuary cities/states.......oh, wait...

“I got to say, all of the Hispanics that I’ve worked with (and here legally) - they ARE hard workers.”

If they are here legally, then they are not culpable for the role they play in the destruction of our culture. Do with that what you will.

Partner, Betsy Vos is doing a great service by sending these illegals back to Mexico and BTW, we are having the great Illegal Alien Invasion here in Texas right now.

We almost have 50% of the Public School population here in a lot of the counties in Texas are close to 50% of the population of that particular county. Of course, not all the counties but the ones that have a high population like the cities of Dallas, Houston, Austin, San Antonio, El Paso, and even the Midland Odessa area.

Send all the Illegal Invaders back to Mexico or to the countries south of Mexico.

We are sick and tired of all of these illegals coming to the U.S. and getting a free education on the taxpayers plus all the other free benefits that they can obtain and even the Mexican government helps these Illegals by telling them where to find jobs and how to apply for the free benefits. We do not have the $$$ anymore since we are being inundated by these illegals.

"Let me just remind Madam Chair that immigration law is federal law," he said. "It's not a local law. It's not governed by a municipality."

There are quite a few laws that are federal, with no state-level equivalent, that I'm sure your local popo would be willing to enforce. Why should immigration be any different? Federals shouldn't be enforcing state/local laws, but local/state should be (at least able to) enforcing federal law.
