Nebraska lawmakers are set to again consider repealing a law that offers tuition breaks to some illegal immigrants.

A majority of lawmakers participating in an Associated Press pre-session survey say they support rescinding the offer made after lawmakers fought to override Gov. Dave Heineman's veto to pass the law in 2006.

Of the 33 senators responding to the survey, 18 said they support repealing the measure, six said they don't and eight were unsure. One senator, Amanda McGill of Lincoln, didn't check an answer, but offered a comment asking for more sanctions on businesses.

The 2006 law benefits students whose parents brought them to the United States illegally. It allows Nebraska high school graduates who aren't legal residents to pay in-state tuition at a public college or university.
