| Not all illegal immigrants have the ability to simply "become naturalized." In fact, the only reason that illegal immigration exists is because the US government forbids certain people from becoming US citizens. However, such people can benefit equally (if not more) from a solid education as can an American citizen and should be allowed to obtain one. If the government is willing to come to its senses and grant them citizenship, then they can pay taxes to help provide such services to others; simply compounding the difficulties of undocumented immigrants in this country by shutting them out of state-funded schools is morally abhorrent. |
