US EditionTaxpayers will no longer fund illegal aliens’ education
UNITED STATES, JUL 10 – The Department of Education will enforce a policy ending taxpayer-funded education benefits for undocumented immigrants, saving an estimated $40 billion for American citizens, officials said.
- On July 10, 2025, a policy change was made stating that taxpayer funds will no longer be used to support postsecondary education programs for undocumented individuals across the United States.
- This decision overturns a 1997 guidance from the Clinton administration that had mistakenly permitted undocumented individuals to receive certain federal education benefits, in conflict with the restrictions set by the 1996 PRWORA law.
- The policy applies to federal programs including career, technical, and adult education funded under Perkins V, AEFLA, and the Higher Education Act, ensuring aid only reaches legally eligible individuals.
- Secretary Linda McMahon emphasized that federal funding for higher education should be reserved for U.S. citizens, asserting that taxpayers will no longer support career, technical, or adult education opportunities for individuals residing in the country without legal authorization.
- This move aligns federal funding with legal eligibility requirements and closes previous policy gaps, though it raises barriers for undocumented students already ineligible for federal financial aid.
