A federal appeals court ruled that Texas cannot give in-state tuition to undocumented [illegal alien] 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 [illegal alien invaders] 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 [illegal alien] students living in Texas, which the court said is illegal.
