In a shocking turn of events, the state of Minnesota is facing a federal lawsuit for offering college tuition benefits to illegal immigrants that are denied to American citizens. The lawsuit, filed by a group of angry parents and students, claims that this policy is unfair and discriminatory towards legal residents.
When asked for a statement, Governor Tim Walz simply replied, “Oops! Did we do that? My bad.” Clearly, the governor is feeling the heat as this scandal unfolds.
One outraged parent, Karen Smith, expressed her frustration saying, “I can’t believe my daughter has to pay full tuition while Juanita the undocumented immigrant gets a free ride. It’s like they’re rewarding people for breaking the law!”
In response to these allegations, a spokesperson for the state of Minnesota, Sarah Johnson, defended the policy by stating, “We believe in providing equal opportunities for all students, regardless of their immigration status. Plus, our budget was running a little low, so we decided to cut corners wherever we could.”
Meanwhile, local college student, Bob Johnson, quipped, “I guess I should have just hopped the border instead of working my butt off for scholarships. Who knew being illegal would have its perks?”
As the controversy continues to unfold, it seems that Minnesota may have to rethink their tuition policies in order to avoid further backlash. Perhaps they should consider offering free tuition to everyone and see how that goes over. After all, who doesn’t love a good freebie?
In the meantime, legal residents in Minnesota will just have to sit back and watch as their hard-earned dollars go towards funding the education of undocumented immigrants. It’s a strange world we live in, folks.
