Friends,
Stacey is co-sponsoring new legislation that would increase scholarship funding to historically-black colleges and universities (HBCUs) by $100 million.
If you agree, please add your name to become a citizen co-sponsor of this legislation today!
HBCUs are currently responsible for 25% of Black STEM degrees. It is estimated that 50% of Black lawyers and doctors attended one of these universities, and HBCU graduates are twice as likely to recall a time they felt supported by a professor than at a predominantly White school.
We must continue to invest in HBCUs to level the playing field for Black and brown communities.
Will you add your name as a citizen co-sponsor of this new legislation to increase scholarship funding to HBCUs by $100 million?
Thanks,
Team Plaskett
