Another judge blocks DeVos from withholding coronavirus relief money from undocumented students
A Massachusetts judge on Thursday blocked the Department of Education from restricting CARES Act funds to college students who are U.S. citizens.
In the ruling, U.S. District Judge Leo Sorokin barred Education Secretary Betsy DeVos from enforcement of the rule for students attending Massachusetts universities.
In guidance issued after the passage of the coronavirus aid measure, DeVos wrote that students must meet the eligibility requirements for federal student aid to receive the emergency grants in the package. The rule would exclude both undocumented students and some community college students.
