Major blue state governor signs bill opening financial aid to illegals

Rep. Miller to FoxNews: “Allowing taxpayer-funded financial aid for illegal al*ens is a slap in the face to hardworking Illinois families and students. Our state is drowning in debt, yet JB Pritzker is determined to drain even more taxpayer dollars to reward illegals. It’s absolutely shameful.”

———–

Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker, a major Democratic leader and rumored presidential candidate, signed a bill into law opening student financial aid to all residents, regardless of immigration status, opening a pathway for illegal imm*grants residing in the state to receive educational financial benefits.

The move was slammed by conservative Rep. Mary Miller, R-Ill., as rewarding illegal imm*grants and a “slap in the face” to Illinois families and students.

The bill purports to establish “equitable eligibility for financial aid and benefits” for all students in the state.
