On 28 February 2008, Rep. Nolte introduced to House Bill No. 1463 providing that "that aliens unlawfully present in the United States shall not be eligible for enrollment in the university or college."[1] Democratic opponents called the bill racist and likened it to Jim Crow laws. “This approach to governance is about nothing more than hatemongering and building wedge issues,” said Rep. Jeff Roorda, a Barnhart Democrat.[2]
