California Gov. Jerry Brown signed the state’s Dream Act into law Saturday, clearing the way for illegal immigrants to receive state financial aid to attend California universities and community colleges.

The law gives illegal immigrants in California more education benefits than in any other state.

According to a statement from the governor’s office, Brown said he signed the California Dream Act because it makes sense to allow high-achieving students access to college financial aid, the Los Angeles Times reported.

“Going to college is a dream that promises intellectual excitement and creative thinking,” Brown, a Democrat, said in a statement. “The Dream Act benefits us all by giving top students a chance to improve their lives and the lives of all of us.”

Under the law, illegals who are accepted into state universities can receive, beginning in in 2013, Cal-Grant assistance, which last year provided grants averaging $4,500 apiece to more than 370,000 low-income students, according to the Times.

Gov. Jerry Brown Signs California Dream Act Into Law for Illegal ImmigrantsIt also allows students without citizenship papers to get institutional grants while attending the University of California and California State University systems, and to get fee waivers in the California community college system. To qualify under the law, students must have arrived in the country before the age of 16 and graduated from a California high school after having attended school in-state for at least three years. They also must show financial need and meet academic standards.

Former California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger vetoed several similar bills in the past.

AB 131 is a companion bill to AB 130, which Brown signed in July, that gave illegals access to privately-funded scholarships and grants.

Brown said that California Department of Finance estimates that 2,500 students will qualify for Cal Grants as a result of AB 131, at a cost of $14.5 million.

“The overall Cal Grant program is funded at $1.4 billion, meaning that 1% of all Cal Grant funds will be potentially impacted by AB 131 when the law goes into effect,” Brown’s statement said.

That differs from other reports about the program’s cost. According to the Sacramento Bee, it is expected to cost the state between $23 million and $40 million annually.

      How exactly does spending money on illegals reduce the deficit?? Not to mention this will attact even more illegal imigartion and cost more money. The state is already in deficit, year after year. The cost of providing social services to the illegal aliens already is about the costs of our annual deficit. Now Moonbeam just raised our deficit another $40 mil.

      California is in so much debt it is unconscionable for Gov. Brown to force taxpayers to pay for illegals education. Brown will be looking for his liberal Fed friends for a future “bailout”. The weather is a big drawing card, however conservatives shouldn’t leave the state, we have to get California slowly back on track.

That’s right, and we believe strongly in the values of Individualism. Now you say (as your masters taught you) that STEREOTYPING is RACIST, right? So is it racist to make fun of many men who get the convertible and the young thang when they hit their midlife crisis? And what about the opposite: a cougar going after young thangs when they hit their midlife crisis? RACIST? If that were the case tif, many jokes would be racist. Chris Rock would be racist. Saturday Night Live would be racist. Get a grip tiffy.

      According to the logic of your masters it is Xenophobic to apply the law, right? It is Xenophobic to expect our government NOT to reward those who break the law, right?

      Now tif, tif, tif, I imagine your some young white girl sitting at home thinking she’s saving the downtrodden from the big old bad “RACIST XENOPHOBIC” USA, didn’t they write some delusional book about you recently that became a movie: The Help?

Our borders are unfenced and poorly regulated but our public lands are fences and regulated to the point that every new administration that comes into power closes 3-5% more and more. I’ve been to places in the past few years that are now closed, blocked or fenced, that where open to the public as a child. We need to tear down the fences to lands that the pioneers and founding fathers once enjoyed without government intervention.

      Caifornia will probably be the first state to go bankrupt, with large scale civil upheaval afterwards.

      The freebie state is on a par with Greece, Spain and Italy with respect to its amount of debt to revenue ratio and both of them will be imploding probably within the next year.

      Here, in the US, California has the highest projected budget shortfall, needing to come up with $25.4 billion just to balance the budget. Illinois comes in second with a projected shortfall of $15 billion. In third is Texas, which will need $13.4 billion to meet its fiscal responsibilities in 2012.

      It’s almost amazing to see the California governor and legislature apparently unable to grasp the significance of their precarious financial position.

      Tom Chittum, in his book, Civil War II, forecasts that California will be ground zero when critical mass is reached with the hostilities beginning via armed conflict between the hundreds of thousands strong black and Hispanic street gangs. If he’s right on this, that will give him about a 90% accuracy rate.

      I am an immigrant that came to the U.S. in the 1970.s. I was brought over by my parents (legally) after 7 years of being separated from them while they came here( legally) to seek a better life for us.My parent’s came to love this country so much and they taught me and my siblings to do the same. We were never under any government dole nor did we take any handouts even though there were times all we could afford was hotdogs for dinner. Our father and mother were too proud to take anything from the government. Now that we are grown and have our own families, we teach our children and grandchildren the same thing our parents taught us. This is our home country now and we are so proud to be Americans. Some of our children are serving in the military, not to get a free education but out of love for our new country. It is so sad to see these Americans who do not understand how lucky they are to have grown up in the greatest country God has ever created.If these young people just spend a year or two at where we came from or any other third world country, I do not think they would treat this great country and it’s constitution the way they are doing right now. And that is another big reason for their ignorance, they have never been taught the constitution of this country. My parents made it a point to have us learn the constitution and now we do the same with our children and their children. As far as illegals are concerned, go back home and apply the legal way. God bless the USA

    I will ask AGAIN: What part of illegal is so difficult to understand? I would give zero benefits to illegal aliens. And I do mean zero. No K-12 education, no food stamps, no healthcare unless they were about to die – and then only what was absolutely necessary to keep them alive until they could be returned to their country of origin.

    If I were to go into Mexico illegally I would be arrested and sent packing. No benefits – nothing just sent back.

    We need to get a grip and start putting an end to this crap.

      Real Answer: 40 million dead because the Chinese would seek and exact revenge against any people(s) that dared to do such a thing.

      We are one of a handful of countries that still play by the antiquated “”good guy” rules. Most of the rest of the world actually looks out for themselves first.

      We are currently led by a man that is in way over his head. It was very difficult to serve in the military under Bill Clinton. (The Bush years – all 12 of them) were easy. Back then we didn’t always agree BUT we felt as though we were all on the same team from the CIC to the lowest enlisted member.

Our people in office are the real blame for legislating the funds. Browne “Moonbeam” just added to it. Cut off all “free money” and watch people stop coming here. Watch the riots too, because all the U.S. legal citizens will not stand for their income being taken away. If people destroy towns because of bad court case (Rodney King), just wait…

      Hispanics ALREADY get preferential registration and loans for college, now, it’s just being extended to illegal Hispanics.

      I don’t even blame people who are Hispanic…unless they’re a politician, which is the group who are to blame.

      Please don’t fall into the racism being promoted. It’s difficult for me too because I see less & less whites and tons more Hispanics & Asians here in SoCal. But, we have to remember that these folks are the tools & results of our real enemy…corrupt, self serving, greedy people in politics.

    California is broke. Are the citizens of California going to get the bill for this ‘free’ schooling for illegals while their own kids have to pay or do the other 49 states have to foot this bill? Liberalism – a worldwide disgrace.
    TEA!

      This ^&%k*(! country‘s lost it’s grip
      Sub-conscious hold begins to slip
      The scales of justice begin to tip

      The legal system has no spine
      It’s corroding from inside
      Slap your hand and you’ll do no time

      Reality on vacation
      All across a blinded nation
      Mentally under sedation

      Anyone can be set free
      On a technicality
      Explain the law again to me

      Mark my words…California will go bankrupt, and Obummer will bail them out, and the entire country will be on the hook for the tab.

    California is hastening the day when their state will be completely insolvent. They already have massive budget issues and the unfunded liability problem in their pension system is looming. They cannot afford to jail their criminals so they are letting many of them go. Illegals and criminals will be attracted to California while business and productive people move out. When the house of cards finally collapses I will be urging my representative to vote against a California bailout.

    good,let them all go running to california, and since the state was that stupid, they should not ask for a bailout when the republicans take over, i wonder how many of their businesses are packing up as we speak,because they know they are about to pay even more taxes and will be vilified ,so i would say good luck to california, but,no way, i will say run baby run, i hope they are ready for a lot of blood shed,between the gangs and drug cartels, it want be long until it is right in their front yard, i just pray for all the innocent people and police and fire fighters that will be caught up in the middle of califorinas own demise,

    The governor of Texas should send flowers and a thank you to Brown as more businesses have a reason to flee California. Brown must be counting on Obama to bail out California if he is reelected so the rest of the US taxpayers can keep it from complete financial collapse as it becomes like a 3rd world country.

    Cal will fund and has funded illegals in the Billions if not trillions over the last 40yrs but the “Refund California movement” would prefer to blame the banks for all there ills.
    It truly takes a sick mind to follow that kind of BS

      Right on.

      I read that 9 public schools have been closed in Tucson Arizona after SB 1070 was passed as all the illegals went to California. The schools that are still open have primarily Hispanic students as almost everyone else is home schooling and/or enrolling their kids in charter schools. No wonder no businesses except call centers that pay minimum wages open in Tucson. Too bad legal Hispanics don‘t realize that they don’t have to leave their kids in these hotbeds of drugs and crime.

      “Commonsenseguy,” you are correct. Brown ought to just give the whole damn state of California back to Mexico right now because they have half of it already. At least then, after they go bust the rest of U.S. won’t have to bail out their sorry arses!

    Good to know Cali had all that extra money to spend. Real weight off my mind. I was under the mistaken impression that they were one of the most broke states in the union. So glad I was wrong.
