Tennessee lawmakers are still moving forward with a bill that would increase the size of the state’s Education Freedom Scholarship. However, the House’s recent amendment to the bill would factor in immigration status.
The House recommended the passage of House Bill 2532 if amended.
The school vouchers allow families to use public funds for private education, and the bill seeks to expand that program.

The House’s amendment states that, going forward, public schools would only receive that funding if their disenrolled students are in one of the following categories:
A citizen of the United States
In the process of obtaining U.S. citizenship
Holds a valid legal immigration or visa status
Subject to pending immigration proceedings in which a final order of removal has not been issued
