North Carolina Bars the Entrance to Children of Undocumented Workers


North Carolina has determined that it is better to create an underclass of young Latinos than provide them with an opportunity to get a college education and make a meaningful contribution to society. I invite you to read Henry Fernandez excellent blog on this issue and post a positive comment. Although North Carolina many times elected segregationist Jesse Helms, it also gave Barack Obama an overwhelming majority of its votes. As well, the northern college towns are creative class centers and would support a more tolerant and humanitarian view. Visit Fernandez blog at: http://thinkprogress.org/wonkroom/2008/05/08/north-carolina-immigration-decision/ and also check out the Dream Act Texas blog which is quite comprehensive on this issue at: http://dreamacttexas.blogspot.com/.

The ICE just told the AG of North Carolina in nicer ways that his interpretation was wrong and that federal law does not prohibit undocumented students from postsecondary education.
