White House Tells Public Schools To Enroll Illegals Despite Lack Of Age Or Address Evidence
 

tool obama :2 cents: :helpme

The Obama administration pointedly told American public schools on Thursday that they must enroll the children of illegal immigrants despite little to nothing in the way of legitimate documentation concerning how old the kids are or where they live.

The lecture came from Attorney General Eric Holder and Education Secretary Arne Duncan, according to a Department of Justice press release obtained by The Daily Caller.

In their joint statement, Holder and Duncan announced updated federal guidance informing officials at taxpayer-funded K-12 schools about new, federally permissible enrollment practices. The updated guidance stresses the need for flexibility in choosing which documents illegal immigrant parents can submit to show a child?s age or whether the child actually even lives within a school?s attendance boundary.

The new guidance specifically stresses that school districts cannot require certain legal documents including a parent?s state-issued driver?s license any time it might prevent a child from enrolling because of a parent?s illegal immigration status.

?The message here is clear,? Duncan said. ?Let all children who live in your district enroll in your public schools.?

?Three decades ago, the Supreme Court issued a historic ruling ? in the case of Plyler v. Doe ? that legislation denying children an education based on immigration status ?does not comport with fundamental conceptions of justice,?? said Holder in remarks delivered on Thursday.

Plyler v. Doe, a 1982 case, was a class action, filed on behalf of a group of school-aged Mexican children in Smith County, Texas who could not establish that they had been legally admitted to the United States.

Justice William Brennan wrote the Court?s 5-to-4 majority ruling.

The slim majority concluded that a Texas law preventing the children of illegal immigrants from attending public schools was unconstitutional because denying the children basic education contributes to ?the creation and perpetuation of a subclass of illiterates within our boundaries.? Thus, The Lone Star State could not show that the law served a ?substantial state interest? ? the legal lingo for the constitutional test applied in cases involving illegal aliens.

?Sheer incapability or lax enforcement of the laws barring entry into this country, coupled with the failure to establish an effective bar to the employment of undocumented aliens, has resulted in the creation of a substantial ?shadow population? of illegal migrants ? numbering in the millions ? within our borders,? Brennan, a leader of the Court?s liberal wing, wrote.

On Thursday, Holder went on to say that the federal government has ?continued to hear troubling reports of actions taken by school districts around the country that have a chilling effect on student enrollment, raising barriers for undocumented children and children from immigrant families who seek to receive the public education to which they are entitled.?

The attorney general said his department will now double down on ensuring that illegal immigrant children are allowed to attend taxpayer-funded American schools.

?Public school districts have an obligation to enroll students regardless of immigration status and without discrimination on the basis of race, color or national origin,? Holder proclaimed. ?The Justice Department will do everything it can to make sure schools meet this obligation. We will vigilantly enforce the law to ensure the schoolhouse door remains open to all.?

Holder also invoked Brown v. Board of Education, the landmark 1954 Supreme Court case declaring that state laws establishing separate public schools for black and white students are unconstitutional, in support of the rights of the children of illegal immigrants to attend public schools despite a lack of documentation concerning age or address.

When do we get rid of this Communist?

we are all rich let them in for free!! :thumbsup

Plus they will give the kids free breakfast and lunches. All the while using up funds that would go to children that are in the US legally.


When I enrolled my daughter for the first time, I had to submit to the front office, court papers that stated I was her legal guardian, I had to show my drivers license to make sure it was me and a birth certificate and a list from our doctor of the shots she had been given.

Eric Holder is an asshole

as long as they get all the vaccinations required

so what realistic alternative do you propose?

please give me 5 examples that this gop lite president is a communist?
They have to follow the law: Plyler v. Doe, a 1982 case, was a class action, filed on behalf of a group of school-aged Mexican children in Smith County, Texas who could not establish that they had been legally admitted to the United States.

Justice William Brennan wrote the Court’s 5-to-4 majority ruling.

The slim majority concluded that a Texas law preventing the children of illegal immigrants from attending public schools was unconstitutional because denying the children basic education contributes to “the creation and perpetuation of a subclass of illiterates within our boundaries.” Thus, The Lone Star State could not show that the law served a “substantial state interest” — the legal lingo for the constitutional test applied in cases involving illegal aliens.

The 2 million deportation milestone was actually reached months ago. As of March 8, the Obama administration had deported 2,087,456 people since fiscal 2009, according to Immigration and Customs Enforcement statistics.

By comparison, the U.S. deported 2,012,539 people under Bush; 869,646 people under President Bill Clinton; 141,326 under President George H.W. Bush; and 168,364 people under President Ronald Reagan, according to ICE statistics.

Denying a kid an education just because the parents are illegal immigrants is immoral.

Read "Reefer Madness" by Eric Schlosser. The majority of those parents are working hard to literally feed not just the Nation but the planet, and they are working for barely minimum wage.

Get over it.

when you are illegally in Europe you get deported...

It's pretty smart. This way kids get an education and neither need to steal from others to make a living nor kill other kids out of boredom.

Anyhow, why would a parent need a driver's permit? Every tourist can test for a divers license in the USA. How would that qualify for being an US parent?

Haha ... in some cases they hold illegals for 10 years and provide them plenty of spending money. Once they do get deported, they no longer speak their native language, but perfect German or French.

Can't do any worse than the black kids. Now maybe they will have kids who want an education.

I wish it was that way here too, but the administration thinks they are potential democrats

so until 2008 they got deported and the current government changed that?

here we go.

Oh, lets just say that it's only one of many things that don't and call it a day.

over 50% never finish

Can't blame kids for being here illegally. It snot like 12 year old can pack his shit and goback to Honduras.
At least they have a chance at becoming something. 53% of blacks drop out of high school and do absolutely nothing.

Holly fuck, 6.8%! Vendzilla is going to have aneurysm now.
Compare it to gang banging assholes who will go straight to prison. Now thats where the real problem is.

Well then American kids don't have to show proof of age then either. I believe in equal rights. Of course that is not what Comrade Holder has in mind but if he really believed in equal rights and justice he would say the same rules apply for all people.

they everywhere will be california :2 cents:

also the article is from the daily caller take for what its worth.
Here is what he actually said
http://www.kgwn.tv/news/national/hea...258466351.html
Schools are allowed to request proof that children live within the boundaries of the district, for which they typically accept documents like copies of phone and water bills, lease agreements, and affidavits, the guidance says. While schools may accept a parents' drivers license as evidence, they may not require it to establish residency since it would unlawfully bar a student whose parents in the U.S. illegally and do not have a drivers' license. They may also not deny a homeless child access to school if he or she cannot provide documents to establish residency.

To prove a student meets age requirements, the school may accept certificates showing a date of birth from a religious institution, hospital or physician, an entry in a family bible, an adoption record, or a parent affidavit. A birth certificate is also an acceptable form of proof of age, but school districts are not allowed to discourage children from enrolling in or attending school because they do not have a birth certificate or they only have one from a foreign country.

illegals are going to collapse what's left.

About fucking time!

Obama has been deporting more than any other president, I'll give him that, but our prisons are full of illegals.

Here in LA, Hispanics make up 50% of the population

LA is a sanctuary city, like a lot of cities in California.

They can be arrested in LA and released without being deported.

The current administration gave guns to the cartels in Mexico, so more people are leaving Mexico. I won't go down to Mexico anymore.

Illegals make valuable contribution by working jobs no-one else want. Some other minorities think work is fo suckaz.

Don't all schools require an address when you sign up a kid for school?

In most cities, there is multiple schools. Where I live we have four grade schools, two middle schools, one high school, one alternative high school, and then a charter school that has both middle school students and high school students. You don't go to the nearest school and say "take my kid" but instead you go to district office and apply, and you are assigned what school to go to depending on where you live. You also do not always go to the school you live closest to depending on the school boundary lines.

Also, I believe public schooling has nothing to do with citizenship. If you are a citizen from Germany or France and move your family to the US for a job, the school doesn't check your citizenship or tax records and say "You aren't a citizen" or "You don't pay taxes here" and reject you.

How is Obama a communist? LOL.

for citizens yes we needed a whole list of things. shot records or no enrollment.

Education is part of the fundamentals for our society.

When my kids came to USA from Denmark they could not start school until I provided their shot records. When I moved from FL to CA they missed 1 day of school because they couldn't start until the shot records was verified again. They are insanely strict about this.

they are making sure your kids are safe. current day kids are getting less :2 cents: nothing is place to try to recover the loss. start freezing those wires to south america. biggest loophole is wiring funds

?the creation and perpetuation of a subclass of illiterates within our boundaries.? :2 cents::2 cents::2 cents:

Here in the LA unified school district, it's 30% of the students are from illegal aliens, and that's from the ones that are being honest.

9% are white

I really don't have an issue with this, but I do think the Federal govt should have to subsidize most of the costs. It's not the kids fault that they are here and they are probably going to still be here when they turn into adults.

I'd rather have illegals with at least a basic education than be completely uneducated. At least with an education, once they become adults there is a chance they will make something of themselves and become a positive for society rather than a negative.

Either way you go, it's damned if you do and damned if you don't.

Illegals should be held to the same standard as legal citizens. If that makes their life too difficult here, then they can always go back to Mexico.

they dont like it there

Illegal immigrants don't pay taxes.

So they don't contribute to the infrastructure of the nation (including school funding).

But you want us to educate them anyways? :disgust

Neither do welfare bums. We got to deport every nig back to Nigeria from UK.

that's a dumb fucking way to think :1orglaugh why not deport everyone on welfare?? you know the government and big business set it up this way right? its off topic as well.

Meanwhile... for my 14 year old daughter to get into public high school later this year I need 3 proofs of address, photo id for myself and wife, social security cards for all of us, along with 7 other pieces of proof (medical forms/proof she went to school last year/etc), and and then 12 pages of forms and releases to fill out.

Great idia :thumbsup
If you're 22, healthy, jobless, have prison record, non-paying child support than come and get your one way ticket to mother fucking Liberia

As usual some tools are talking out of their asses in exchange for sig views.

:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh


says the dumb fuck who reposts news WIRE stories ALL DAY LONG. :1orglaugh
and who da fuck wants to stalk your sorry ass? :1orglaugh

Sounds great in theory, but that would mean that these children wouldn't be able to go to school, wouldn't be able get even the most basic education, etc...

you think that's a desirable outcome? you really think that anything good could possibly come out of this plan?
