Federal Court Rules Against Illinois In-State Tuition for Illegal Immigrants

Federal Court Rules Against Illinois In-State Tuition for Illegal Immigrants

A federal court has ruled unconstitutional the Illinois laws that provide in-state college tuition and certain state financial aid benefits to illegal immigrants. The ruling was in favor of the U.S. in its lawsuit against the State of Illinois, Governor Pritzker, and several state entities. The decision stems from a lawsuit filed by the U.S. Department of Justice’s Civil Division and the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Southern Division of Illinois. The court has stayed its order for 14 days to allow the State of Illinois to decide whether to appeal. If no appeal is filed, the order will take effect in August, ending Illinois’ ability to provide these benefits through the RISE Act and Illinois DREAM Act.

Federal Court Blocks Minnesota's Ban on Prediction Markets

Federal Court Blocks Minnesota's Ban on Prediction Markets

A federal court has issued a preliminary injunction blocking Minnesota from enforcing a new law that would have banned prediction markets. The law, which was set to take effect on August 1, was challenged by the Trump administration and major prediction market platforms, Kalshi and Polymarket. The U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) argues that it has exclusive authority to regulate these platforms under federal law. The court's decision highlights the legal debate over whether event contracts offered by prediction markets qualify as 'swaps,' which are regulated by the CFTC. The ruling prevents Minnesota from implementing a total ban, although the state may still be able to restrict certain types of prediction-market wagers.

South Korean Finance Minister Apologizes Amid Heavy Losses in Leveraged ETFs

South Korea's Finance Minister, Koo Yun-cheol, issued an apology following significant losses incurred by retail investors in single-stock leveraged ETFs tied to major chip companies like Samsung Electronics and SK Hynix. These ETFs, introduced on May 27, were designed to deliver amplified daily returns but have suffered severe declines, with the KODEX SK Hynix ETF falling over 80% since its peak on June 23. The downturn in the Kospi index, driven by a sharp correction in chip stocks, has led to substantial financial losses for investors who engaged in speculative trading during the AI-driven semiconductor rally.
