Advocates held teach-ins, did campus outreach, and held online actions this week to push UC’s policymakers to allow undocumented students to work university jobs.
“Not being able to work… is another reason why I wasn't able to finish in four years,” he said. He’s in his fifth year at UCLA and the tuition charges and other non-academic costs keep piling up. Not being able to work has severely limited opportunities for him to work with professors on research projects that pay those working on them.The organization held on-campus and online events this week hoping to reach the U.C.
“If you want undocumented students also to be able to graduate without a mountain of debt, they obviously have to be able to work,” said Ahilan Arulanantham, a UCLA law professor who co-directs the school’s Center for Immigration Law and Policy. There’s a growing list of undocumented students who are graduating from high schools and don’t meet a 2007 arrival cutoff under DACA that would have allowed them to obtain a work permit.For about a year and a half, Arulanantham co-led a team that studied the federal law that prohibits people who are undocumented from obtaining legal employment, 1986’s Immigration Reform and Control Act .
Unlike other federal laws that explicitly direct state governments and their agencies to follow the legislation, Arulanantham and his colleagues found no such words in IRCA. The team wrote an interpretation that argues that the omission leaves the door open for states and their agencies to hire people who are undocumented.
If you want undocumented students also to be able to graduate without a mountain of debt, they obviously have to be able to work.“It's definitely novel. This is not a theory that, as far as we know, has been adopted by any state government thus far,” Arulanantham said.
