Many Democrats support offering in-state tuition rates to undocumented immigrants, as they believe in providing equal opportunities for education. For example, the California DREAM Act, signed by Democratic Governor Jerry Brown in 2011, allows undocumented students to pay in-state tuition rates.

Yes, as long as they pay taxes

Agree

Yes, and they should also be eligible for financial assistance and scholarships

Agree

Yes, but deny eligibility for financial assistance and scholarships

Very strongly disagree

No, and all illegal immigrants should be deported
