Sign the Community College Petition!
Recently, the NC College Board decided to allow illegal aliens to enroll in North Carolina Community Colleges. Only a few months of internal procedures remain before this rule goes into effect.
Our state unemployment rate is over 10%. Why should the State of North Carolina be assisting illegal aliens to become better educated in order to steal jobs which belong to unemployed citizens?
According to the N.C. Employment Security Commission our state has had to borrow nearly $2 billion [yes, billion] dollars this year from the federal government to pay unemployment benefits, because the state unemployment insurance trust fund is in the red. They estimate our state may need to borrow another $2 billion through the course of 2010.
NC LISTEN is asking that the citizens of North Carolina sign a petition asking the North Carolina General Assembly to pass legislation to prevent illegal aliens from enrolling in our North Carolina Community Colleges and the University of North Carolina System.

SB 848 Voted Worst Bill of the Year
The NC Civitas Institute in Raleigh began an on-line contest to determine which piece of legislation introduced in the NC General Assembly this past session was the WORST BILL. Thirty-two “bad bills” were selected for consideration in a NCAA-type March Madness competition and citizens cast over 10,000 votes during a period of eight weeks. State Senate bill S.848 which was introduced [but did not pass] would have allowed, by statute, illegal immigrants to enroll in our North Carolina Community College System and our (sixteen) University of North Carolina campuses. North Carolina citizens voted S.848 as the WORST LEGISLATION to be introduced in the NC General Assembly.
What of course did happen is the NC Community College Board decided recently to allow illegal immigrants to enroll in our NC Community College System [all 58 campuses]. NC LISTEN is working to deny this atrocity, which could go into affect by mid-2010. More to follow on this effort. Wonder how the above contest for worst bill must make the NC Community College Board feel, given their actions? I would suggest it should make them feel like a bunch of idiots, which they are in my opinion. In the middle of one of the worst recessions in American history, our NC Community College Board decides to help illegal immigrants enroll in college when our state unemployment rate is 11% and citizens need help with retraining and education to be better able to acquire a job.
