Senate discusses Pell Grant increase

The Pell Grant program to assist students with financial aid so that they can go to college, is being discussed by Senators. The Bill is sponsored by Sen. Ted Kennedy and others and has the support of most Democrats. However, corporate America and its lobbyists don't want to increase student aid. They prefer to bring immigrants into this country from countries such as India, China and other countries so they can pay cheaper wages. Watch who supports this Bill and who doesn't to see who is on the side of the Middle Class and poorer amongst us. The Bill proposed isn't some huge increase either. They are just trying to get it to the level it was back in the 1970's to help the burden ease somewhat and that so no child is left behind from going to College because they don't have the money.
