In 1982, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled in the case of Plyler Vs. Doe that every municipality must pay for the education of its residents without concern to their nationality or immigration status.

It is basically a don't ask, don't tell law where you cannot ask the parents of illegal aliens of their immigration status and if asked, they don't have to tell.

U.S. Constitution: Amendment 14: Section 1:

All persons born or naturalized in the United States and subject to the jurisdiction thereof are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside.  No state shall make or enforce any laws which shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any state deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within it's jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.

U.S. Constitution: Amendment 14: Section 5:

The Congress shall have the power to enforce, by appropriate legislation, the provisions of this article.

Two possible solutions to this legal mangling by Congress

  • Congress can pass legislation using Section 5 of the 14th amendment
  • We are being invaded.  There is nothing else to call it when over 10,000 illegal aliens cross the border from Mexico each day.

    Since the Feds won't do what is necessary to stop it, the governors must.  Those on the border states should permanently station national guard troops on the border with orders to shoot to kill any Mexican troops or Mexican police escorting illegals across the border and to shoot anyone that shoots at them.

    The governors have another weapon at their disposal.  Amendment X -- The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the states, are reserved to the states respectively, or to the people.

    The governors of all states with an illegal alien problem should invoke Amendment X and serve formal notice their state will no longer obey federal mandates of providing free education and healthcare to criminal aliens and that since the federal government is guilty of malfeasance of its designated duties under Article I, Section 8 of the U.S. Constitution, namely provide for the common Defense and general Welfare of the United States; to establish an uniform Rule of Naturalization; and failed to call forth the Militia to execute the Laws of the Union, suppress Insurrections and repel Invasions, all funds expended by the State of ______ in assuming the duties of the Federal government in securing its borders and repelling an illegal alien invasion will be deducted from State monies owed the Federal government for a period of one year.  After a period of one year, if the Federal government still is non-compliant with its constitutionally-mandated duties, it shall be deemed in breach of contract with said State and legal steps will be formally taken to withdraw from the union of states and the remission of ALL monies to the Federal government will cease in their entirety.
