A dozen school districts in Oklahoma said they will not check students’ immigration status if asked by the state’s education department, in the latest sign of growing resistance to State Superintendent of Public Instruction Ryan Walters. Walters announced last week at the monthly State Board of Education meeting that he planned to ask school administrators to assist his office by calculating “the cost and burden” of illegal immigration on their districts.
Two-thirds of them are believed to be living in the counties where Oklahoma City and Tulsa are located, the state’s largest, according to the institute’s analysis. Representing immigrants as a burden is misleading, according to the Oklahoma Policy Institute, a nonpartisan research group. “Our immigrant neighbors contribute to our communities, including paying taxes,” the group wrote in a July 31 statement, citing a recent national study on the issue.
