In-state tuition for immigrant students without documents is headed for a vote in the Oregon House.
The House Higher Education Committee voted 7-2 Monday to approve House Bill 2787. Similar bills in 2003 and 2011 failed to get out of committees in the House after passing the Senate.
The bill would allow state universities to charge in-state tuition if students meet specified conditions, including five years in U.S. schools and three in Oregon, graduation from high school or its equivalent in Oregon, and proof of intent to seek citizenship or legal status in the United States.
