Seeking thoughts on immigration

I am beginning work on a series of columns on illegal immigration in the suburbs of Central Jersey, focusing on the difficulties the undocumented face and looking at:

• whether undocumented students who graduated from New Jersey high schools should charged in-state tuition at state schools (currently, they pay out-of-state tuition);
• whether immigration status should be considered when drive’s licenses are issues;
• the services that are available and needed, especially at a time of economic upheaval.

I’ve got a long list of interviews lined up, but I’d like to hear from readers of this blog and of the various Packet newspapers, so send me an e-mail at hkalet@centraljersey.com and tell me what you think.
