AI Summary

This bill aims to restrict in-state tuition rates and fees at public institutions of higher education in Massachusetts to only citizens or permanent residents of the United States.

The bill also requires the Board of Higher Education to issue regulations defining residency and proof of residency for the purpose of admission and tuition, with the added requirement that a resident must be a U.S. citizen or permanent resident.
