At the end of August, California Gov. Jerry Brown extended additional rights to illegal alien students by signing AB 1887.

Sponsored by California Assemblymember Jose Medina, the law ensures that all students that qualify for in-state tuition can participate on college boards and commissions, regardless of age or immigration status.

He’s also considering granting other rights to illegal aliens that are usually reserved for U.S. citizens.

Those are contained in a bill introduced by Senator Ricardo Lara (D-Bell Gardens).

Senate Bill 174, the California Inclusion Act, would open civil service on local and state boards and commissions to all Californians, regardless of immigration status.

The state of California has hundreds of boards and commissions that advise the Legislature and Governor on policy affecting areas such as farm labor, Asian and Pacific Islander American affairs, California history, education, employment development, healthcare, children and families, parks and recreation and the status of women and girls.
