Our laws guarantee all students the right to a K-12 education, regardless of their immigration status.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
We must revamp K-12 education law to ensure Washington does not stand in the way of meaningful reforms.
The problem with K-12 education is socialism and the solution is capitalism.
Every child has a right to education as much as to life, and every woman the right to live.
All provisions of federal, state or local law requiring or permitting discrimination in public education must yield.
Every citizen has the real right to receive general education and professional training at no cost, something that the United States has not been able to ensure for all its inhabitants.
If we do not get No Child Left Behind right for Limited English Proficient students, the law will be a failure for most schools in the 15th Congressional District, and for many across the nation.
We must enforce the laws we have on the books, secure our borders, and deny special benefits to illegal immigrants such as in-state tuition rates. This approach is best for American citizens and is fair to those who have taken the time and effort to go through the legal immigration process.
I strongly support not just citizenship classes but also teaching children how the law works and the many ways it affects their lives.
In K-12, almost everybody goes to local schools. Universities are a bit different because kids actually do pick the university. The bizarre thing, though, is that the merit of university is actually how good the students going in are: the SAT scores of the kids going in.
I came across this circumstance of undocumented students. These are kids who were brought to this country as youngsters, who are raised as Americans and go to American schools, and then when they graduate high school, they have no prospects in front of them because they are undocumented and illegally in the United States.
