ATLANTA (WTVM) - Georgia State Senator Josh McKoon (R-29), said he would introduce legislation that would clarify that immigrants living in the state without legal status would not be allowed to pay in-state tuition for college, according to the Atlanta Journal-Constitution.
Sen. McKoon, in his fourth term as a state senator, said his house bill would make two current lawsuits go away, the AJC reports.
The bill, McKoon says, would change the language that the lawsuits cite from Obama administration's Deferred Action for Childhood Arrival program or DACA. The DACA grants temporary legal protection against immigration.
