Fox News radio host Todd Starnes blasted recent legislation by cities voting to pay the legal fees of illegal immigrants with taxpayer money.
Starnes discussed a vote by the Sacramento City Council last week that allotted $300,000 in taxpayer money to be given to illegal aliens with immigration problems. The council also voted to strengthen existing “sanctuary city” policies already in place in the California state capital.
“It’s now illegal for city employees to ask about someone’s immigration status,” Starnes said on “Fox & Friends” Tuesday. “In other words, one set of rules for law-abiding Americans and another set of rules for the illegals.”

@foxandfriends @toddstarnes That kind of money could pay for transport back to where they came from.

Starnes also reported on a plan by Georgia’s Emory University to give undocumented students a free ride. The college plans to cover “100 percent” of the tuition costs for students in the country illegally.

“Law-abiding American students must pay for their education, as do international students who came here legally,” Starnes explained. “But not those who came here illegally. “Yeah, that’s going to give somebody a micro-aggression.”
@foxandfriends @toddstarnes WOW, talk about racial bias. The cost will be passed to poor, underprivileged minority students. Hmmm..

@MariaMe42546452 @lhbncht @foxandfriends @briondahill @toddstarnes Perhaps a class action lawsuit against @EmoryUniversity by legal American citizens will get their attention.

The conservative columnist concluded with his thoughts on what it used to mean to cross another nation’s border illegally.
“You know folks, there was a time when millions of people crossing the border into one country without permission was considered an act of war,” Starnes said.
“They used to fight wars over stuff like that,” he added. “But these days, well they just call it a Democratic voter registration drive.”
