Urges U.S. Congress to remove federal courts' jurisdiction in education matters involving illegal aliens, or overturn Plyler v. Doe.

This resolution urges the U.S. Congress to remove federal courts' jurisdiction over cases involving illegal aliens paying school tuition or taxes. It argues that states should have the right to govern their education policies without federal interference. Alternatively, it calls on the U.S. Supreme Court to overturn its decision in Plyler v. Doe, which prohibits states from limiting education funds to U.S. citizens and legally admitted aliens. The resolution asserts that illegal aliens cost states billions and often do not pay their full tax responsibilities.
