Illinois gives financial aid to illegals while the population shrinks

Timothy Birdnow

The state of Illinois - broke and in serious trouble - is offering state funded student aid to illegal aliens and trans individuals.

From lthe Belleville News Democrat:

Federal student financial aid is available only to United States citizens. In addition, male students who are 18 or older must have complied with federal requirements to register for military selective service, something that many transgender women do not do.

Hernandez said passage of the bill, House Bill 2691, would provide access to the state’s Monetary Award Program, or MAP grants, to an estimated 3,000 to 3,500 potential students who don’t currently qualify for student financial aid.

The bill would also remove all caps on how many credit hours a student can fund using MAP grants. Currently, students are limited to 135 credit hours, but Hernandez said that disproportionately affects students of color who come from underfunded school districts and who often need to take remedial courses before they take standard freshman-level classes, and therefore need more time to complete a degree program.

Illinois is one of 16 states that offer in-state tuition rates to undocumented immigrants, if they meet all other residency and admission requirements, according to the National Conference of State Legislatures.

The bill passed by 66-47. Nobody even tried to argue this on existential grounds aka saying they are promoting lawbreaking.

Meanwhile, people are voting with their feet. Chicago's population has dropped for the fourth straight yea, losing 22,068 residents from 2017 to 2018. Coincidence? Not really; Illinois is run by Chicago, and Chicago is run by radicals and mob bosses. It's a banana republic, and will continue to remain so as the Democrats own the state lock, stock, and barrell now and most especially Mike Madigan has absolute power in the state House of Representatives.

The worrisome thing is that many of the people who voted for the Democrats in Illinois, and even those who were simply luke-warm, are moving to Indiana and other red states, and they may well eventually turn them into greater Chicago. That's the way this thing works; liberals screw up an area and then move on, like a plague of locusts.

Of course, the answer the Democrats have to the native born diaspora is to import new people from Latin America. Cute.

Illinois is fast becoming Venezuela only with nowhere nearly as much oil Oh, and they have taken pains to eliminate their other natural fuel, coal...
