AI Summary
This bill proposes to amend the existing laws in Massachusetts to restrict in-state tuition rates and fees at public institutions of higher education to only those individuals who are U.S. citizens or permanent residents. Specifically, the bill would amend the General Laws to state that individuals who are not U.S. citizens or permanent residents would not be eligible for in-state tuition. Additionally, the bill would further define a "resident of the commonwealth" for the purposes of admission and tuition expenses at public institutions of higher education as someone who is also a U.S. citizen or permanent resident.
