Today, Assemblyman Gil Cedillo is due to present a bill (previously presented and vetoed three times by ex-CA Governor Schwarzenegger) that would allow undocumented immigrant CA residents pursuing a higher education in the Cal State, UC or community college system access to CA financial aid. Here is the article. How amazing would that be?!
Also in this article I learned that New Mexico and Texas currently provide in state financial aid to undocumented immigrants, I wish I'd known that . . . right now it wouldn't do me any good bc I'd have to go there and establish residency to actually have access to financial aid. I suppose anyone who lives in either of these states that could benefit from it already knows about it, I hope so, but if you know anyone who doesn't know about it, please let them know!
It would be pretty awesome if this bill in CA gets passed and I'd have access to financial aid. Life is good :)
MUCH LOVE!!
