Illegal Aliens Should Not Be Allowed To Attend School In The United States 

“First of all, just to be crystal clear, if you’re an illegal alien, you do not have a right to an education or, for that matter, to continue to be in this country. Whether you are 17 or 70, whether you’ve been here a day or a decade, the penalty for being here illegally is deportation — and you don’t get a pass if you’re in school.

Moreover, setting aside from the fact that’s it’s not right to use taxpayer dollars to educate people who aren’t supposed to be in this country in the first place, it’s completely counter-productive to allow illegal aliens to send their kids to school here. That’s because if illegals know that their kids can’t get an education in the United States, it will strongly motivate them to go back home. Conversely, if an illegal feels that his children can get a better education here in the United States than they can in his home country, it gives him another powerful reason to stay here.

That’s why no illegal alien should be allowed to go to public schools in the United States.”
