DOJ lawsuit challenges Arizona in-state tuition for undocumented students
The Trump Justice Department is suing Arizona over voter-approved Proposition 308, alleging that in-state tuition for qualifying undocumented students violates federal law. Attorney General Kris Mayes vows to defend the policy, arguing that Arizona high-school attendance—not residency alone—establishes eligibility. The case could affect thousands of students, public universities, state authority, and similar programs nationwide.
