Exactly! It's crazy hearing about budget cuts, teacher layoffs, increasing classroom sizes and yet the government expects taxpayers to support millions of illegals.
It really is mindblowing, isn't it? Even if our economy were going well who in their right mind would think that we should support illegal aliens in any way including educating them in our schools? Our politicans have the power to change this travisty. What are they thinking?
Government says all kids, legal or illegal, are entitled to K-12 education
Why not pay to educate the world with that logic?
I am in Miami and we have similar logic with the "Dry Feet" policy with respect to Cubans. You are allowed in once you touch U.S. soil but can be returned to Cuba if found at sea in transit to the USA.

"Wet foot, dry foot" is a policy that should have ended long ago. Another idiotic thing that our government continues to allow.
Look what it got us. Miami and much of Florida look like little Havana with most Cubans insisting on Spanish only.

I would say the only part of K-12 an illegal is entitled to would be the yellow bus ride south.
