**Taxpayers Hit Hard as States Defy Federal Law on Illegal Aliens’ Education Costs**

In a troubling revelation for American taxpayers, new analysis shows that the cost of providing college education for illegal aliens amounts to over a billion dollars annually.

This massive expenditure comes despite a federal law that explicitly prohibits states from offering discounted in-state tuition to individuals not lawfully present in the U.S.

Judicial Watch's report exposes that 22 states and the District of Columbia are flagrant violators of the law, unabashedly subsidizing the college education of illegal aliens while American students suffer the consequences.


Senator Tom Cotton has introduced the "Put American Students First Act," intended to curb this trend by imposing stricter regulations on states that continue to disregard federal statute.

According to the proposed legislation, any state that continues to offer discounted tuition rates to illegal aliens could face severe financial penalties, including the withholding of federal education funding.

The report underscores the inequities faced by American students, who are often overlooked in favor of those who have entered the country illegally.

While states like Texas, Oklahoma, and Kentucky have complied with federal law, others, particularly in more liberal areas like California, New York, and Illinois, have continued to extend these costly benefits.

The analysis reveals that an estimated 500,000 illegal immigrants are currently enrolled in U.S. colleges, emphasizing the scope of taxpayer-funded educational benefits being misallocated.

This fundamental issue of who deserves access to educational resources raises critical questions about fairness and responsibility in allocating taxpayer funds.

As the Biden administration continues to advocate open borders and lenient immigration policies, the pushback from conservative lawmakers is gaining momentum.

By redefining education funding priorities, the "Put American Students First Act" aims to ensure that American citizens are prioritized in the allocation of state and federal resources.

In a climate where the rule of law is increasingly disregarded for politically expedient choices, this legislative initiative draws a clear line in the sand.

It's an urgent reminder that American taxpayers should not be saddled with the burden of funding college for individuals who do not obey the nation’s immigration laws.

Only by holding defiant states accountable can we begin to restore common sense and fairness to our educational system.
