A fight is brewing in Maryland over allowing illegal immigrants to pay reduced in-state tuition as Montgomery and Prince George's senators introduce bills that others are trying to kill.
Both state Sen. Richard Madaleno, D-Wheaton, and Senator-elect Victor Ramirez, D-Cheverly, plan to file bills that would allow illegal immigrants who graduated from Maryland high schools and whose parents or guardians pay taxes to receive the in-state rate of $8,416. Currently, undocumented students admitted to the public University of Maryland system pay out-of-state tuition of $24,831."
