You all should have heard about Pedro A Ramirez by now, but just for the uninformed, he is a college student at Cal State Fresno who is an admitted illegal, the student body president, and recent unlicensed driver involved in an accident.
One of his countrymen has introduced a bill that would make it state law that illegals can be president of the student body, AND, legally obtain money for compensation....in violation of federal laws.
BILL NUMBER: AB 844 INTRODUCED
BILL TEXT
INTRODUCED BY Assembly Member Lara
FEBRUARY 17, 2011
An act to add Section 66016.3 to the Education Code, relating to
student government.
LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST
AB 844, as introduced, Lara. Student government: students
qualifying for exemption from nonresident tuition.
The Donahue Higher Education Act sets forth, among other things,
the missions and functions of California's public and independent
segments of higher education, and their respective institutions of
higher education.
Existing law exempts a student, other than a nonimmigrant alien,
as defined, from paying nonresident tuition at the California State
University and the California Community Colleges if certain
requirements are met. Those requirements include that the person has
attended high school in California for 3 or more years, has graduated
from a California high school or has attained the equivalent
thereof, has registered at or attends an accredited institution of
higher education in California not earlier than the fall semester or
quarter of the 2001-02 academic year, and, if the person is without
lawful immigration status, has filed a certain affidavit.
This bill would add a provision to the Donahoe Higher Education
Act that would provide that a student who is exempt from paying
nonresident tuition under the provision referenced above is eligible
to serve in any capacity in student government at the California
State University or the California Community Colleges and to receive
any compensation, as defined, that is connected with that service to
the full extent consistent with federal law. The bill would also
state that it is declaratory of existing law. Vote: majority. Appropriation: no. Fiscal committee: no.
State-mandated local program: no.
THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS:
SECTION 1. Section 66016.3 is added to the Education Code, to
read:
66016.3. A student who is exempt from nonresident tuition
pursuant to Section 68130.5 is eligible to serve in any capacity in
student government at the California State University or the
California Community Colleges and to receive any compensation that is
connected with that service to the full extent consistent with
federal law. As used in this section, "compensation" includes, but is
not necessarily limited to, reimbursement for expenses incurred
while conducting student government business, or a scholarship,
stipend, or voucher. This section does not constitute a change in,
but is declaratory of existing law.
