Assembly approves bill to waive tuition for immigrant students. Since it is the SF Chronicle, we know that "immigrant" means "illegal alien":
A bill that would allow undocumented immigrants to apply for financial aid at California community colleges was approved by the state Assembly Thursday.It's great that California taxpayers have so much dough that they can have their own foreign aid program!
The bill, by Sen. Martha Escutia, D-Norwalk, would direct the board of governors to establish a process so students without legal immigration status can apply to have tuition waived.
