· The 2007 / ­2008 biennial budget bill (2007 Senate Bill 40) would allow for undocumented children to attend technical college without having to pay out of state tuition. The requirements to qualify for this are similar to those in many other states, namely that you have graduated from a WI high school.

· 2007 As­sembly Bill 101 would punish employers that hire illegal immigrants. This legislation was also proposed in 2005, it was referred to the Assembly Commit­tee on Labor, where it died.

· 2005 Senate Bill 567 (now a part of 2007 Senate Bill 40) would require documentary proof of citizenship from any person applying for public assis­tance from the Wisconsin Department of Health and Family Services or the Wisconsin Department of Workforce Development.
