- DOJ sues New Jersey over laws giving illegal aliens in-state tuition, says citizens treated as 'second-class'
The U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) sued New Jersey over state laws allowing illegal immigrants to access in-state tuition and financial aid, claiming the policies discriminate against U.S. citizens. The lawsuit, part of a broader Trump administration initiative, argues these benefits violate federal law and disadvantages American students. Similar legal actions in Texas, Kentucky, and Oklahoma have previously blocked comparable laws.
