The SC Illegal Immigration Reform Act is superseded by Department of Homeland Security's ruling that Dreamers (young people qualified for DACA-Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals) are lawfully present and therefore eligible to attend all our schools. Allow Dreamers to attend all our schools now!
Why is this important?
A student was denied admittance to Trident Technical College because he was undocumented. Trident stated that our state Immigration law disallowed his admittance, but Homeland Security has ruled these Dreamers are lawfully present and therefore our state law does not apply to these young people. It is important to clarify this legally to all our schools and allow these students in.
