Maryland: Opponents of Maryland immigrant tuition bill say referendum plan is on track... Opponents of the in-state tuition bill have until May 31 to turn in one-third of the required 55,700 signatures, or about 18,600 names. The final batch must be turned in by June 30...the group — Mdpetitions.org — has been encouraged by public support for its effort and hopes to turn in more than 36,000 signatures by the first deadline to ensure that the names can withstand anticipated legal challenges from supporters of the bill.
