Kansas lawyer sues Nebraska over in-state tuition for illegal immigrants
Kris Kobach filed suit in Jefferson County District Court on behalf of six Nebraska residents challenging a 2005 Nebraska law that grants in-state tuition to immigrant students who arrived illegally and met school criteria. The action names the University of Nebraska Board of Regents and other state college boards as defendants. The suit argues the law violates a 1996 federal rule barring benefits to illegal immigrants without parity for US citizens.
