In a shocking turn of events, the state of Kentucky has found itself embroiled in a legal battle over the issue of illegal immigrant tuition. Former Attorney General, Greg Johnson, has come out in support of a lawsuit challenging a voter-approved law that allows undocumented immigrants to pay in-state tuition at public universities.
Johnson, known for his tough stance on immigration, has stunned many with his unexpected support for the lawsuit. In a statement released to the press, Johnson explained his reasoning, saying, “I may have been tough on crime in the past, but when it comes to illegal immigrants getting a discount on their education, that’s where I draw the line. It’s time for Kentucky to stand up and say enough is enough.”
The lawsuit, filed by a group of concerned citizens calling themselves the “Kentucky Patriots,” argues that the voter-approved law is unconstitutional and undermines the rights of legal residents. The group’s spokesperson, Karen Smith, had this to say about the issue: “We have nothing against immigrants, as long as they come here legally and pay their fair share. It’s not fair that undocumented immigrants are getting a better deal than hardworking Americans.”
However, not everyone is on board with the lawsuit. Governor Andy Beshear has condemned the legal action, calling it a waste of time and taxpayer money. In a press conference, Beshear stated, “This lawsuit is nothing more than a political stunt designed to drum up support for the upcoming election. We have more important issues to focus on, like improving education and healthcare in our state.”
Despite the controversy, the Kentucky Patriots are determined to see their lawsuit through to the end. They have vowed to fight for what they believe is right, no matter the cost. As for former AG Greg Johnson, he remains steadfast in his support for the lawsuit, declaring, “I may no longer be in office, but I will always fight for what I believe in. And right now, that means fighting against illegal immigrants getting a free ride in Kentucky.”
Only time will tell how this legal battle will play out, but one thing is for sure – Kentucky wanted this fight, and they’re not backing down anytime soon. Stay tuned for more updates on this absurd and comical saga as it unfolds.
