A group of out-of-state college students sued to challenge a California law that lets some classmates who are illegal immigrants pay the lower in-state rate if they graduated from an in-state high school. The class action lawsuit said the policy violates a federal law barring states from offering benefits to illegal immigrants that are not available to U.S. citizens. California is one of nine states with laws that let undocumented students qualify for in-state rates.
