DOJ Challenges Kansas Tuition Law

The Justice Department is suing Kansas over its in-state tuition policy for undocumented students, arguing it violates federal immigration law. Critics like AG Kris Kobach say the state has no right to grant residency benefits to non-citizens, while defenders like attorney Pedro Irigonegaray claim Kansas has full authority to decide educational access within its borders. Governor Laura Kelly wants to join the case, and this isn’t the first time the DOJ has targeted similar state laws—Kansas joins Nebraska and Oklahoma in being challenged, with nationwide implications for how immigration and education intersect.
