State Superintendent Walter says no more illegal kids in school!​

Where did you hear about this? The only thing I can find on it says he wants to require schools to collect the immigration status of the child and report numbers of those who can't provide proof of citizenship.

Q: What are the new rules proposed by State Superintendent Ryan Walters?​

A: The proposed rules require students to show proof of U.S. citizenship during enrollment. If this information is not provided, schools must report the numbers to the Oklahoma State Department of Education.

Oklahoma’s proposed rule change would require school districts to report the number of students who are unable to prove their citizenship. This likely doesn’t run afoul of any state or federal laws — the text of the rule says that the data would be anonymous and not used to keep children from going to school — and could discourage parents from sending their children to school.

There are about 6,000 undocumented students enrolled in Oklahoma’s public schools, according to the Migration Policy Institute.

I'm pretty sure federal law requires schools to accept students regardless of their immigration status. It's nonsense, but it is law according to the SCOTUS.

Trump says no go even if they are born here. Parents illegal and have a kid here it’s still an illegal person.

We must make sure we dont end up like china with its generations aging out and low population numbers coming behind them. Except chinas stupidity did it to themselves.

Could possibly fix several issues if it goes through.

I support any lawful measure to "encourage" illegal immigrants to leave. Once enough of them have left, we can work to increase LEGAL immigration through systematic reforms.

Try looking at it this way. LEGAL immigration is less costly and more productive for our nation than illegal immigration. Everything from education, to criminal justice, to healthcare to taxes operate more efficiently and effectively if they're here legally. That's truly common sense.
