The Illinois House passed a bill that would allow young people who are illegal in the U.S to pay in-state tuition rates at Illinois state colleges and universities.
In a passage excepted from “An Education in Citizenship”, Chicago Tribune Editorial, The author explains how unfair it is for illegal residents to be paying lower tuition fee compared to the amount paid by legal residents. The most significant idea the author presents is, why even insist on Citizenship?
I agree with the author, because there is a distinction in the rights that are to be expected as a legal citizen. “The notion that someone can have no legal right to be present in the country but be entitled to a very expensive and valuable benefit of citizenship is absurd in its face”.
There must be a reason the legal citizens of this country might have accepted for this to happen. The idea that someone who is not allowed legally to be present in the country and is allowed an higher education for a lesser amount than the average citizen contradicts itself because those people are not even to be living there.
Your essay has a good opening sentence. it has the title of the article and it also mentions the authors purpose it also talks about the main idea early in the essay. But a couple of things are wrong here in my opinion.the beginning of the essay more couldve been written. in the third paragraph you used a line from the passage and it suppose to be written in your own words. more details and development couldve been added and there is only one body paragraph. the ending paragraph is pretty good, overall is not a bad essay but a lot more couldve been said.
