The U.S. Justice Department's lawsuit says the regulation violates federal immigration law by enabling undocumented students to qualify for the lower tuition rate at Kentucky's public colleges and universities, while American citizens from other states pay higher tuition to attend the same schools.

Stock market today: Dow, S&P 500, Nasdaq futures drift as Wall Street braces for July inflation report
US stock futures wavered around the flatline on Tuesday as Wall Street braced for July's inflation report and President Trump revealed his pick to head the Bureau of Labor Statistics. Futures attached to the Dow Jones Industrial Average (YM=F), the benchmark S&P 500 (ES=F), and the tech-heavy Nasdaq 100 (NQ=F) all fell below the flatline. Intel (INTC) stock jumped more than 2% in premarket trading on Tuesday after CEO Lip-Bu Tan met with President Trump, who had called for Tan's resignation last week. After the meeting, Trump posted to Truth Social saying that he had met with Tan along with Secretary of Commerce Howard Lutnick and Secretary of the Treasury Scott Bessent. "The meeting was a very interesting one," the president wrote, adding, "His success and rise is an amazing story." On Tuesday, reports said China urged local firms not to use Nvidia H20 chips, complicating Trump's bid to turn those sales into a US windfall. After the bell on Monday, Trump announced that he nominated E.J. Antoni, chief economist at the conservative Heritage Foundation, to lead the BLS. "E.J. will ensure that the Numbers released are HONEST and ACCURATE," the president said on Truth Social. Trump fired Erika McEntarfer as commissioner of the BLS earlier this month following the release of the July jobs report, which contained "larger than normal" revisions to data and revealed fewer jobs than previously thought had been added to the economy. Trump said, without providing evidence, that McEntarfer had been acting politically and her numbers "were wrong." During day trading, stocks slumped even as Trump reportedly granted another 90-day pause on the most punishing tariffs on China as the two countries work toward a trade deal. Read more: The latest on Trump's tariffs Wall Street is preparing for the release of July's Consumer Price Index (CPI) report on Tuesday morning. Analysts expect it to show that prices increased as Trump's tariffs kicked in. A hot inflation report could put the Federal Reserve in a tight spot as it navigates rising prices amid recent signs of a weakening labor market. In the background, anticipation over the possibility of a September interest rate cut continues to grow. Investors will get two more pulse checks on the state of the economy later this week, with the release of the Producer Price Index on Thursday and retail sales data on Friday. Cannabis stocks soar as President Trump considers reclassifying marijuana Tilray (TLRY) stock rose another 10% in premarket trading on Tuesday after soaring 41% on Monday amid speculation that President Trump may move to reclassify marijuana as a less dangerous drug. The Canadian cannabis company traded hands at over $1 per share for the first time since February. Despite a 60% gain in the past month, however, shares are still off by 30% for the year. Other cannabis stocks saw a major lift as well. Trulieve (TCNNF) gained 38% on Monday, Curaleaf (CURLF) was up 35%, Green Thumb Industries (GTBIF) added 19%, Aurora (ACB) increased 16%, and Canopy Growth (CGC) surged 26%. On Friday, the Wall Street Journal reported that Trump told donors at a New Jersey fundraiser he was considering making marijuana a Schedule III drug, which would ease restrictions on the substance. Trump said he will make a final decision in the coming weeks. "We're looking at reclassification and we'll make a determination over the next — I would say over the next few weeks, and that determination hopefully will be the right one," Trump said. "It's a very complicated subject." Intel is still a disaster Intel (INTC) is rallying premarket as Trump walked back his apparent hate for the company's CEO, Lip-Bu Tan, after meeting on Monday. Don't be fooled by the price action, however. This isn't the case like Apple (AAPL), where CEO Tim Cook kisses Trump's butt and the company is exempt from various tariffs. Intel is a fundamental disaster right now. People in the industry I talk to are unsure if the company will ever come back to a state of health, given 1) how fast AI chip development is occurring, and 2) how far behind Nvidia and AMD Intel is. Intel's statement on the meeting: "Earlier today, Mr. Tan had the honor of meeting with President Trump for a candid and constructive discussion on Intel's commitment to strengthening U.S. technology and manufacturing leadership. We appreciate the President's strong leadership to advance these critical priorities and look forward to working closely with him and his Administration as we restore this great American company."
