Trump DOJ sues Mass. over immigrant tuition law
The Trump administration's Department of Justice sued Massachusetts and Rhode Island over laws allowing undocumented students to pay in-state tuition rates, arguing the policy violates federal law by providing benefits to undocumented immigrants that are not extended to U.S. citizens from other states. Massachusetts and Rhode Island defend the laws as necessary to support residents who attended local schools and contribute to the economy.
