The Department of Justice is suing Kentucky over a state regulation that allows illegal immigrants to receive in-state tuition at public colleges and universities.

“Federal law prohibits aliens not lawfully present in the United States from getting in-state tuition benefits that are denied to out-of-state U.S. citizens,” the lawsuit stated. “There are no exceptions.”
