In fact, when he discovered his position came with a $9,000 stipend, he declined knowing his status prevented him from legally working or receiving federal aid.
“He personally notified me and ASI advisers about his immigration status, and volunteered to serve without pay as president, since his status does not allow him to receive a paycheck,” said Cal State Fresno President John Welty in a statement.
Nevertheless, his critics are angry, and say he wasn’t honest with the student body about his immigration status when he ran for the position.
UCF’s College Republicans’ president Cole Rojewski, who ran against, and lost to, Ramirez during Student Body elections, said, ”He misled the students…he should step down.”

Here is an instance where the legal person if they took the position would be getting the 9k. Here we have an illegal who should not have been allowed to run, and therefore is taking a position away from a legal resident. This is why we cannot allow illegals to compete in the education market or job market until they become legal. It is a fairness issue.
