Proposition 227 was a bill to allow students from foreign countries be given the most adequate help to be English Learners to help them succeed in the educational system and society. Most students who migrate to the US are places in LEP or ESL classes where they are forced to be treated less than the english speaking students. Teachers who teach these classes are not the most informed, prepared and positive teachers, instead of understanding these students struggle to learn a new language most of time they are discouraged from attending school and being seen and treated as a burden. Proposition 227 would bring in more classes for these students rather than just having a limited number of teachers leaving a big number of students who need help in learning the english language. “The students come from various socioeconomic, linguistic, cultural and educational backgrounds, and there are many of them do not fall into the high-achiever category” (Pyon, 66). Due to the lack of funding for teachers to be prepared to teach these students this proposition would also provide money to the schools as long as they would spend it for ESL.LEP students and classes, this would allow students to have a better chance to understand english and learn it in a higher rate preparing them for the regular classes and not falling behind.

The bill came close to passing after debates in the Senate and the House in 2010, coming eight votes short and enduring a filibuster. The bill has been promoted by some advocates as a way to fulfill the military shortage crisis and has helped some states clarify residency status for the purpose of funding higher education and setting in-state tuition levels (Forenza and Mendonca 292). Since the act remained unpassed, a more restricted variation known as DACA (Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals) came into effect instead, which offered limited status for alien minors who attended high school or entered higher education. However, these revisions have not led to any formal policy on educational assistance and/or residency status for alien minors.

10) There is a group called the Mexican American Legal Defense and Education Fund that supports Cedillo 's idea of allowing illegal aliens to posses driver 's licenses, but feel that there should not be any background checks or other restrictions(Kline par. 13). The MALDEF feel that every citizen of Mexico coming into California should receive a license, whether they are criminals or not. The old bill, AB 1463, was vetoed in the year 2000 by former Governor Gray Davis. Davis stated that AB 1463 was an "invitation for fraud (House par. 9)." But once Davis 's job was starting to crumble, he decided to pass the new bill ,AB 60, to try and gain more support from legal and illegal Hispanics in the state of California before he was recalled.
