EVEN THE RIGHT WAS NEVER GOING TO DEPORT THEM:
How many K-12 students are illegal immigrants? (Valerie Strauss November 21, 2014, Washington Post)
According to the Pew Research Center's Hispanic Trends Project, 6.9 percent of K-12 students had parents of illegal immigrants in 2012, while far less -- 1.4 percent -- of all students were illegal immigrants themselves. (Anybody born in the United States automatically becomes a U.S. citizen, despite the legal status of their parents.) Nevada had the biggest percentage of students with parents who were illegal immigrants, followed by California, at 13.2 percent; Texas, at 13.1 percent; and Arizona, at 11 percent.
