Rell Says No To Illegals

"The fact remains, however, that these students and their parents are here illegally and neither sympathy nor good intentions can ameliorate that fact."
--- Governor Jodi Rell

Governor M. Jodi Rell vetoed a bill today that would have allowed children of illegal immigrants the right to pay in-state tuition for state universities. In early June the State Senate passed the bill on a 20-15 vote, which then gave it to the Governor to either sign it or veto it.

Here is a link to the post I did earlier on this issue, and here is the article from the News-Times.
