Bill overview
The Put American Students First Act aims to prevent undocumented immigrants from receiving in-state tuition rates at public colleges and universities. It strengthens a 1996 law to ensure that tuition rates are based on legal immigration status, aligning with existing federal policy. The bill requires colleges to verify student immigration status annually and mandates repayment of any in-state tuition benefits received by undocumented students, along with penalties for states that continue to offer these benefits. It also impacts federal funding for states that violate these provisions.
