Federal Appeals Court Ends Texas In-State Tuition for Illegal Aliens

[Free Vulcan]

A federal appeals court ruled that Texas cannot give in-state tuition to undocumented students.

In a decision handed down Thursday, the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals ruled that a 25-year-old Texas law allowing these discounts directly conflicts with federal law. The court pointed to a federal statute that says states can’t give higher education benefits to undocumented immigrants based on where they live unless they offer those same perks to all U.S. citizens, regardless of what state they’re from.

Under the Texas rules, out-of-state American citizens were being charged much higher tuition rates than undocumented students living in Texas, which the court said is illegal.

Hell yeah!  Finally, sanity and pushback against giving illegal alien foreigners preferential treatment.

It's not right that a kid from New Mexico should have to pay more than an illegal alien to attend Texas A&M!

I'd like to see a similar lawsuit filed here in Arizona, we have the same stupid law!
