Back to EpisodesTennessee House Passes Bill on Undocumented Students
Description
Tennessee lawmakers pass bill to track undocumented students immigration status, sparking controversy and protests. The measure, which aims to provide better data on student populations, faces opposition from protesters, Democrats, and critics concerned about costs and potential scaring of students. The bill, which initially proposed denying undocumented kids or charging their families tuition, was watered down to avoid losing federal funding and to comply with a 1982 Supreme Court ruling. The bill now awaits resolution in a conference committee.
