Mitt Romney Points Out Rick Perry Has Support From South Of The Border

Mitt Romney has released a new hard hitting ad which takes aim at Rick Perry’s support for giving in state tuition to illegal immigrants in Texas. According to the ad, “President Obama, Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid support Governor Perry’s position to give in-state tuition to illegal immigrants.”
“Mitt Romney has a different view: “Four years of college, you’re almost $100,000 discount if you are an illegal alien to go to the University of Texas. If you are a United States citizen from any one of the other 49 states, you have to pay $100,000 more. That doesn’t make sense to me.”” The ad centers on a statement from, then president of Mexico, Vicente Fox in 2003 thanking Governor Rick Perry for giving illegal immigrants access to American schools. “I want to publicly recognize Governor Perry and the state of Texas by having taken that step forward when you decided to give access to Mexican migrants to universities in Texas.”
