(ATLANTA, GA) – Immigrant community organizations and DREAMERs collectively support in-state tuition equity measures to make college more affordable for DREAMERs and Immigrant Students. Georgia is one of only three states that explicitly prohibits in-state tuition rates for undocumented students. Advocates view the in-state tuition bills introduced in the Georgia State House of Representatives as a critical step in the right direction for Georgia.
