"Plyler v. Doe" is a landmark Supreme Court case decided in 1982. The case addressed whether states could deny public education to children based on their immigration status. The Court ruled that denying education to undocumented children violated the Equal Protection Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment, emphasizing that education is a fundamental right. The case originated in Texas, where a law sought to charge tuition for undocumented students. The Supreme Court's decision affirmed that all children, regardless of their immigration status, have the right to access public education, reinforcing the principle of equality under the law.
