The 844-page immigration reform bill the bipartisan “Gang of Eight” dropped in the dead of night contains a lucrative handout that would give taxpayer-funded free cell phones to some people who live or work near the U.S. border with Mexico.
Pages 43 and 44 of the bill detail what one conservative blogger, Javier Manjarres of Shark Tank, has already described as the “ObamaPhone” from Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL). That section reads:

The immigration bill senators introduced Wednesday bans racial profiling by federal law enforcement officers in most routine encounters, such as traffic stops.
Under current federal law and court precedents, racial discrimination is illegal — but there is no specific ban on racial profiling by federal officers.

Immigration Bill Gives New Legals $3,000 Hiring Edge
Under the immigration reform bill, some employers would have an incentive of up to $3,000 per year to hire a newly legalized immigrant over a U.S. citizen.
In avoiding one controversy — the cost of providing millions of newly legalized immigrants with ObamaCare subsidies — the Senate “Gang of Eight” may have risked walking into another.

Immigration Bill ‘Worse Than We Thought,’ Legalizes Relatives and Previously Deported
CNS News quotes Rep. Lamar Smith from Texas [emphasis added]:
“It’s hard to believe, but the Senate immigration bill is worse than we thought. Despite assurances, the border is not secured before almost everyone in the country illegally is given amnesty. The bill guarantees there will be a rush across the border to take advantage of massive amnesty.”
Rep. Smith says the Senate immigration bill shreds current immigration laws:
“And the Senate proposal offers amnesty to far more illegal immigrants than we thought. In addition to most of the 11 million illegal immigrants already in the country, the bill offers to legalize the relatives of illegal immigrants outside the U.S. and even others who have already been deported back home. So current immigration laws are shredded. (Read More)

Undocumented Immigrant Student In-State Tuition Bill Signed Into Law In Colorado
Undocumented immigrant students in Colorado can celebrate today — a bill that grants undocumented students in-state college tuition rates was signed into Colorado law by Gov. John Hickenlooper today.
Colorado now joins thirteen other states to allow undocumented immigrant students who graduate from state high schools
to attend college at an in-state tuition rate. According to The
Associated Press, some of Colorado’s undocumented students had been
paying more than three times higher than the rate in-state students pay.http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/04/29/undocumented-student-inst_n_3180476.html
Don’t forget that our nation’s veterans are forced to pay out-of-state tuition at many universities
