The controversial bill is the highest-profile act to expand undocumented students' access to higher education after a federal Dream Act, which would have given undocumented students a path to short-term permanent residency status, failed last year to attract enough support in Congress.
"The Dream Act benefits us all by giving top students a chance to improve their lives and the lives of all of us," Mr. Brown said.
The state Department of Finance estimated that 2,500 students may qualify for state Cal Grant scholarships when the law takes effect in January 2013. The amount of funding the students could receive was estimated at $14.5 million. State officials said that represents about 1 percent of the total Cal Grant funding.
Now it is time analysis that it is better for us and students or not. With this approach many same sings will come in future.
