BLOG 4(ATW PRACTICE 1)

           In the passage "An education in citizenship" the main idea is a bill was passed in Illinois that allows young people in the U.S illegally to pay in-state tuition rates at colleges and universities in Illinois.In this passage you will first read about the difference in tuition for in-state and out-state. Next you will read what issues come to surface because this law. Last you will read is it right to let people who live in the U.S illegally pay for for school or is it wrong.
        With this bill being passed by Illinois there is a major difference in tuition. Students who are in-state residents pay 5,302. Out-state people who are wishing to go to colleges or universities pay a tuition of 13,906. Congress in Illinois fill that people who are not in the united states illegally should pay more for their education because they are not in the U.S legally.
       Some people fill that the nation isn't enforcing their immigration law. I say this because in the article it states that :the notion that someone can have no legal right to be present in the country but be entitled to a very expensive and valuable benefit of citizenship is absurd on its face". People believe that it doesn't make sense that if you are not suppose to be in this country you shouldn't be able to go to school.
       There are alot of arguments to be made because of this bill. One of the strongest augments that was made was" is it right to charge legal citizens from other states more for tuition then we charge no-citizens that are immigrants?" As you have read people are strongly aginst this bill for many reason. at the end of the argument there will only be one reasonable distinction.
