<p>The Department of Education is ending a Clinton-era rule allowing illegal aliens access to federally funded tuition programs.</p>
<p><a href="https://dailycaller.com/2025/07/10/exclusive-trumps-ed-dept-ends-free-tuition-for-illegals/">According</a> to The Daily Caller, the Trump administration argues that the policy, which funds career, technical, and adult education programs, violates the Personal Responsibility and Work Opportunity Reconciliation Act (PRWORA). The Education Department notified postsecondary education programs that the rule would no longer apply and declared that providers have “obligations to verify the eligibility of participants.”</p>
<p>This was one of <a href="https://www.whitehouse.gov/articles/2025/07/taxpayer-funded-benefits-are-for-american-citizens-not-illegals/">several</a> such moves the White House announced today. The Department of Health and Human Services &#8220;is restricting illegal aliens from 13 additional public programs, including Head Start,&#8221; while the Labor Department &#8220;is barring illegal aliens from accessing federal workforce development resources and grants.&#8221;</p>
<p>According to a White House fact sheet, the cuts save &#8220;roughly $40 billion in benefits for American citizens, overturns decades of bureaucratic defiance and builds on President Trump’s executive order directing an END to the subsidization of open borders.&#8221;</p>
<p>“Past presidents sat by and allowed illegal aliens to steal public benefits at the expense of hardworking American taxpayers — that ends now,&#8221; White House Assistant Press Secretary Taylor Rogers told The Daily Wire. &#8220;Under President Trump, it’s America first always.”</p>
<p>PRWORA previously exclusively allocated the use of federal funds to American citizens, permanent residents, and a small category of “qualified aliens” (e.g., refugees, asylees). However, the Clinton administration exempted postsecondary programs from the rule. The Trump Education Department stated that the exemption “mischaracterized the law by creating artificial distinctions between federal benefit programs based upon the method of assistance.”</p>
<p>In line with PRWORA, Secretary of Education Linda McMahon <a href="https://www.ed.gov/about/news/press-release/us-department-of-education-ends-taxpayer-subsidization-of-postsecondary-education-illegal-aliens">said</a> if the federal government is going to fund postsecondary education programs, it “should benefit American citizens, not illegal aliens.”</p>
<p>“Under President Trump’s leadership, hardworking American taxpayers will no longer foot the bill for illegal aliens to participate in our career, technical, or adult education programs or activities,” she said. “The Department will ensure that taxpayer funds are reserved for citizens and individuals who have entered our country through legal means who meet federal eligibility criteria.”</p>
<p>The Trump administration has been cracking down on states that provide benefits to illegals in education.</p>
<p>On June 30, it announced the revocation of nearly $7 billion in federal grants, part of which went toward teaching English as a second language. The administration argued that the money was being used to push a “radical left wing agenda.”</p>
<p>Despite threats from the administration, some schools continue to provide benefits for illegals and protect them from deportation.</p>
<p>The Education Department’s new interpretation of the Clinton-era rule will take effect on August 9, 2025.</p>
