"The Department of Justice and Texas then reached an agreement to end the two-decades-old law regarding in-state tuition for undocumented immigrants."
"According to the Higher Ed Immigration Portal, 24 states and the District of Columbia offer in-state tuition to undocumented students."
"Many of the laws are designed to aid undocumented students who've attended high school for several years to qualify for in-state tuition."
"The Trump administration's move against in-state tuition for undocumented students is one of many to make life difficult for immigrants amid a mass deportation plan."
Undocumented immigrants who have completed their education in Texas public schools must pay out-of-state tuition to attend public colleges and universities if in-state tuition is repealed. A federal lawsuit by the Trump administration seeks to block state laws providing in-state tuition rates to undocumented immigrants, asserting that federal policy prevents such benefits. The Department of Justice has reached an agreement to dismantle a longstanding Texas law while similar actions are underway in other states. This movement aims to restrict benefits for undocumented students while aligning with a broader agenda against immigration.
