ICYMI: Texas Ends In-State Tuition for Illegals After DOJ Lawsuit

The White House
June 5, 2025

From CBS News Texas:

"Texas has agreed to end in-state tuition rates for undocumented immigrants.

The Department of Justice sued Texas on Wednesday over a long-standing state education policy, which it says illegally favors undocumented foreign students. The lawsuit accuses Texas of discriminating against out-of-state American students by offering in-state tuition rates to undocumented immigrants.

That same day, Attorney General Ken Paxton filed a joint motion along with the Trump administration to end the law.

It's one of the latest efforts by the Trump administration to crack down on immigration into the country. President Trump issued two executive orders to prevent 'benefits or preferential treatments' from going to undocumented immigrants."
