Abstract
The article offers information on the 1982 U.S. Supreme Court case Plyler v. Doe, which established that undocumented students have the right to a free public education under the 14th Amendment. Topics discussed include the origins and implications of the Plyler decision; arguments for and against overturning it; ongoing legislative efforts to challenge the precedent; and the ongoing debate over immigration status and public education funding.
