Trump DOJ Sues Kentucky and Democrat Gov. Andy Beshear for Handing Out College Tuition Discounts to Illegal Aliens While Penalizing American Citizens

President Trump’s Department of Justice filed a lawsuit against Democrat Governor Andy Beshear and Kentucky state education officials for providing in-state college tuition to illegal aliens—while making out-of-state U.S. citizens pay full price.

The lawsuit, filed in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Kentucky, targets Beshear, Education Commissioner Robbie Fletcher, and the Kentucky Council on Postsecondary Education (CPE) for violating federal law and the U.S. Constitution’s Supremacy Clause.

At the center of the controversy is a Kentucky regulation—13 Ky. Admin. Regs. 2:045 § 8(4)(a)—which allows illegal immigrants who graduate from Kentucky high schools to receive dramatically discounted in-state tuition, even as American citizens from neighboring states are forced to pay much higher rates.

“No state can be allowed to treat Americans like second-class citizens in their own country by offering financial benefits to illegal aliens,” said Attorney General Pamela Bondi.
