Who this affects: HR6865 impacts several groups, including states, public colleges, and students who are illegal immigrants. States and public colleges offering benefits to illegal immigrants would lose federal funds. Students who are illegal immigrants could face higher education costs.
Why this matters: HR6865 is significant because it addresses the use of federal funds in state and college policies regarding illegal immigrants. Supporters argue it ensures federal money is used appropriately and discourages states from offering benefits to illegal immigrants. Opponents worry that the bill could harm students who have grown up in the U.S. but lack legal status, making college less affordable. The bill reflects broader debates about immigration policy and education funding in the U.S.
