A federal judge has blocked a Texas law that has for decades given college students without legal residency in the U.S. access to reduced in-state tuition, swiftly ruling in favor of the latest effort by the Trump administration to to crack down on immigration into the country. The 2001 law was one of the first in the nation to allow students without legal residency to attend public colleges and universities at the same cost as in-state residents. The ruling came in a lawsuit filed by the Trump administration in its latest effort to crack down on immigration into the country.
