Illegal Immigrants: Invading our Schools?

As of 1999, there were 968,000 illegals in the United States. The number of illegal immigrants has estimately increased to about 11-13 million today. School registration should be one way to identify illegal immigrants and the children of illegal immigrants should not be allowed to attend our schools because their parents do not pay the taxes.

Reasons

1. Illegal immigrants do not pay taxes. No matter what anyone says, education is not free and yet the children of these illegals are receiving free education.
2. The funds that are being spent on illegal immigrant studies are taking away from the studies of the American citizens.
3. The illegal immigrants are overcrowding our schools. There has been a 14% increase in school enrollment between 1990 and 2000. About 250,000 illegal immigrant children are enrolled in our school systems every year.
