Fairness in Higher Education Act of 2007

The Fairness in Higher Education Act of 2007 would prohibit colleges and universities from receiving federal funding if they are located in a state that offers in-state tuition or financial aid to undocumented immigrants. Under this bill, institutions in those states would lose access to federal programs, which includes student financial assistance such as Pell Grants and federal student loans. The legislation is designed to require states to choose between providing state-level benefits to undocumented students and maintaining federal support for their higher education systems.
