Yes, that would qualify. I live in a tech-company heavy area, and we have a lot of people working here on multi-year contracts. Their kids have to go to school somewhere. My neighbor is on a two-year assignment from Toronto.
Plyler v. Doe says that states have to educate illegals because they're not going to be deported. (And, yes, it is an outrageously evil decision.) But if the kids may be deported, then the Court's rationale doesn't apply, and the states don't have to educate them.

So theoretically they all could be deported so why the need for the decision? Somehow I doubt that that would hold up
This is the very same legislator who was behind putting up the ill fated Ten Commandments monument outside the state capitol. He got the state legislature to approve of it, and he paid $10,000 to have it made and installed. ACLU and a church minister complained about it. The Oklahoma State Supreme Court, the only partly sane branch of Oklahoma state government, ordered it taken down, since it violated a clause in the Oklahoma State Constitution. Oklahoma legislators tried to get back at the ruling by getting people to vote yes on removing that clause from the state constitution. But surprisingly Oklahoma voters said NO.
By the way, topic of this thread is from 2017, not 2018. The sorry legislator never got what he wanted passed. So the poster struck out in trying to make Oklahoma look bad. Try to do better next time.

Now, now, surely Oklahoma and hopefully even its Republicans have advanced beyond those dark days when air passengers would abruptly have their drinks snatched by stewardesses. When ask why the hell they had to do that the answer was, "Because we're about to enter dry airspace--Oklahoma!"
And? Illegal aliens are just that-ILLEGAL. We should be looking for obvious clues of criminal activity and investigating them. If you see something-say something.
There is a difference between being an illegal and not speaking English very well. Big difference. Being a poor speaker of English does not constitute being an illegal. The point is that this representative in Oklahoma made a very ignorant comment. He suggested that not speaking English well = illegal immigrant.
Do you pay property taxes? I don't know about Oklahoma, but in Texas mine are sky high. I just paid DISD $7,000.00, the district is majority anchor babies and illegals. That doesn't even cover the thousands I paid Parkland Hospital where a lot of these anchor babies are born. I love my house, I wanted to spend my retirement years in it, but now I'm going to have to move. People are pissed and rightfully so.
I've paid around $2400 in property tax. In my school district, that has helped pay for a new high school football stadium, replaced two old elementary schools with sprawling new ones, with a third old elementary school soon to be replaced. What next may be a new athletic village for the high school. So I have been watching where my property tax goes.
That exclusion is legal because???
If they are members of the GOP--dues paying members--how can they be prohibited from having a booth/stall?
