Indeed, the Texas legislature “will be uniquely positioned to attack and ultimately dismantle one of the most successful state pro-immigrant initiatives on the books” (Sakuma , “How Texas Could Give Up on Its DREAM,” 2015). Abbott's approach to immigration reform is the position the state needs. There are several flaws within the program, such as undocumented individuals receiving more tuition than the ordinary hard-working U.S. citizen. To remain a powerful state, Texas must first appeal to its citizens rather than the other way around. At the moment the state is educating people who have no intention of staying. Instead, most of them retreat to their own countries to begin practicing their studies. The program should be vetoed and reformed to make in-state education more affordable for US citizens and offer proportional “in-state” tuition that is feasible. Texas is also expected to implement an hours rule for undocumented students, while undocumented individuals can apply for a maximum of 12 credit hours in addition to applying for permanent residency. As UTSA eliminates the CAP program to increase graduation rates, undocumented individuals must apply for citizenship or dual citizenship and must be approved in order to graduate. More Republicans might favor such a clause simply based on the ideals of “come here, contribute here”.”
