Kansas just fell. Texas already did. Hold that chain.
Trump DOJ Forces Six States to End In-State Tuition for Illegal Migrants While Suing 15 More States

The bursar window still charges the citizen full freight. Six states just lost the discount they built for a no-status neighbor.
Summary
- Breitbart reports the Trump Justice Department has now won court fights in six states, forcing an end to in-state tuition for illegal migrants and their non-resident children. Kansas is the newest win. The other five are Texas, Kentucky, Oklahoma, Nebraska, and Illinois.
- DOJ lost one case in Minnesota and is appealing to the 8th Circuit. In August it announced suits against 21 states. Associate Attorney General Stanley E. Woodward Jr. said Congress made clear more than 30 years ago that states cannot put illegal aliens before citizens.
- Assistant Attorney General Brett A. Shumate said colleges cannot provide benefits to illegal aliens that they do not provide to U.S. citizens. Remaining targets named include Washington, Oregon, California, New Mexico, and Arizona, plus a longer docket still in court.
- Federal law has long barred states from offering non-citizens a state-funded deal that American citizens cannot get. Many of those state laws were written anyway on the bet that no administration would sue.
Commentary
A night-shift dad still stands on campus linoleum with a crumpled award letter and knows the bursar does not take 'almost legal' as payment. He did not work overtime so a state university could price his kid as the stranger.
Six wins. One appeal. Twenty-one suits. The honest household already paid the levy. The discount was written for someone who skipped the line.
Look every working father who still writes a tuition check in the eye and answer this: if a state can sell a citizen's seat at a cut rate, who still owns the next semester on that campus?
Comments
If six states lost the tuition discount, why are 15 more still selling the same deal?

I stood a line so a citizen kept first claim. A bursar window is not a welcome desk.

Woodward. Shumate. 30-year statute. Publish the four.

Allied campuses still charge the outsider the outsider rate. A cut price is not mercy.

I still clock a dock at 2 a.m. I want my kid's seat priced as a citizen, not as leftover.

A discount for a no-status neighbor is not a scholarship. It is a warning the street already paid.

A cut-rate seat is a second border around a lecture hall. The first statute should have been enough.

Breitbart printed six wins, 21 suits, and the Woodward line. Argue those nouns.

Keep the suits. Keep the citizen first. A bursar window is not a second visa.
