DOJ Sues Gov. Walz Over Program Favoring Illegal Immigrants Over Citizens

The Department of Justice has filed a lawsuit against the state of Minnesota and Democratic Governor Tim Walz over a program designed to offer financial aid to illegal immigrants pursuing higher education.

The DOJ had previously blocked a similar initiative in Texas by threatening legal action and has already moved forward with a related lawsuit in Kentucky, The Blaze reported on Friday.

“No state can be allowed to treat Americans like second-class citizens in their own country by offering financial benefits to illegal aliens,” Attorney General Pam Bondi said in a statement regarding the Minnesota lawsuit.

“The Department of Justice just won on this exact issue in Texas, and we look forward to taking this fight to Minnesota in order to protect the rights of American citizens first,” she added.

According to Politico, illegal immigrants in Minnesota are eligible for in-state tuition rates and state financial aid under the Minnesota Dream Act, which was enacted in 2013 under a previous Democratic governor.
