Summary
A federal judge just struck down Illinois’ law allowing undocumented students to pay in-state tuition, ruling it violates federal immigration law — a major blow to thousands of students who relied on this access to affordable higher education. The 2019 state law, designed to reward those raised in Illinois, now faces legal jeopardy as federal authority takes precedence. Advocates warn families may lose access to college, while the ruling underscores the growing tension between state support for undocumented residents and federal immigration policy.
