Will Watts Demand In-State Tuition for All Felons?
Rick Noriega, a Houston-based consigliere for Enron-wannabe CenterPoint Energy and Senate candidate, is the leading advocate for legislation which requires Texas to provide in-state tuition and financial aid to illegal aliens who have crossed the border into Texas before applying to a Texas college:
Noriega, whose great-grandmother crossed into Texas from Mexico in 1916, is author of a law permitting in-state college tuition rates for illegal immigrants.Noriega’s likely opponent for the Democratic nomination in the Senate race is Mikal Watts, a San Antonio trial lawyer.
Not to be outdone by Noriega’s bold legislation extending in-state tuition and financial aid to college applicants who violated immigration laws, I anticipate the following announcement from the Watts campaign in the near future:
Watts has demanded that all lawbreakers who come to Texas to commit their felonies should receive both preferred access to financial aid and reduced in-state tuition:“Where is Rick Noriega’s compassion?” Watts asked a crowd gathered in the Walls Unit of the Texas State Penitentiary at Huntsville. “Noriega extended financial aid and preferential in-state tuition only to those college applicants who break immigration laws,” Watts continued, “and I mean to break down that artificial barrier so that all convicts who cross Texas’ border in the commission of a felony enjoy an equal access to financial aid and reduced tuition at Texas universities!”
