    Illegal immigrant children deserve an education.

    Period.

    Having an uneducated illegal immigrant child presence in the country who are not in school during school hours will harm the children, harm the parents, harm the community, and harm their future if and when they do naturalize legally, setting them back literal decades and completely ruining their future chances.

    I stress again, these are literal children, who are innocent in all this. They don’t choose where they get to live. They don’t get a material say in this, and blaming and harming them for their parents choices is cruel and hateful.
