University of California President Janet Napolitano on Wednesday announced an earmark of $25.2 million from the system’s taxpayer-funded coffers to help support a variety of programs that assist undocumented UC students.

Napolitano, who served as Secretary of Homeland Security from 2009 to 2013 and was charged with protecting the nation’s borders and immigration rule of law, now is propping up students in the country illegally, saying in announcing the allotment that “we are committed to continuing a path forward for undocumented students at the University of California. This funding will further strengthen the university’s undocumented student initiative, and help ensure that these students receive the support and resources they need to succeed.”
