Five US states look to limit free public education for undocumented students, challenging decades-old SC ruling
Five US states are pushing for policies that would limit undocumented students' access to free public education, challenging the landmark 1982 Supreme Court ruling in Plyler v. Doe. These proposed actions, driven by growing political momentum and supported by conservative think tanks like the Heritage Foundation, could lead to legal battles that might reconsider the ruling. EducationWeek reports that at least five states are involved in these efforts, potentially reshaping education rights for undocumented students.
