Chris Gabrieli on Immigration

Opposes in-state tuition rates for illegal immigrants

UCC: You've said that you were opposed to providing in-state tuition rates for state colleges to illegal immigrants. Why?

Gabrieli: It's a question of priorities. It's not a priority for me to extend state taxpayer funding to address the needs and wants of people who are illegal.
