Rep. Joe Miklosi will carry legislation in the House that would grant in-state tuition rates to illegal immigrants.
Miklosi, D-Denver, has agreed to be the House sponsor for Senate Bill 170, sponsored by Sen. Chris Romer, D-Denver.
The bill would give the in-state tuition rate to any student who has attended a Colorado high school for three years and graduated, regardless of immigration status.
No House member had come forward to sponsor the bill until this week.
Senate Majority Leader Brandon Shaffer, D-Longmont, said the Senate is unlikely to debate the measure this week because proponents asked for more time to work on amendments. Tim Hoover, The Denver Post
