Massachusetts Response to its Migrant Crisis: Offer Even More Benefits
May 31, 2024
If any state in America proves the axiom that “things in motion stay in motion” it’s Massachusetts. What else but perpetual motion physics can explain the logic behind the Bay State’s non-stop granting of benefits to illegal aliens? Its latest scheme: free tuition at community colleges for all residents regardless of immigration status.
The bill which recently passed the Massachusetts Senate, but not yet the House, contains deceptive provisions that will provide cover to politicians facing blowback from constituents angry that taxpayer money will subsidize so-called “free” higher education for illegal aliens. The legislation cleverly excludes “nonimmigrant aliens” from the benefit. Note, however, that this classification does not refer to illegal aliens. Section 101(a)(15) of the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA) specifies that nonimmigrants are foreign nationals admitted temporarily to the United States such as foreign government officials, temporary visitors for business and pleasure, aliens in transit, academic and vocational students, temporary workers, and others who have been screened and approved for entry.
In effect, the bill includes illegal aliens.
