Friend,
In 1990, the average annual tuition for public college in the U.S. was $3,800. By 2020, the cost tripled to $10,560. Thirty years ago, less than half of students took on loans, and total student debt was $24 billion. Today, 54% take on loans, and total debt is a staggering $1.6 trillion.
We need an urgent course correction.
Pursuing your dreams shouldn’t put you in crushing debt. We shouldn’t be gatekeeping the basic right to education. In one of the world’s wealthiest countries. In order to help the next generation thrive in our global economy, we must abolish the financial burdens that stand in the way of their prosperity.
That’s why I’m proud to be a supporter of Rep. Pramila Jayapal’s College for All Act. This bold bill will revitalize our education system by opening the door to stress-free opportunities for current and future students, regardless of their financial status.
Sign if you agree: We need College for All!
The College for All Act will benefit our nation by making two- and four-year public colleges and universities tuition-free. Furthermore, the bill will erase those trillion-plus dollars in student debt through a tax on Wall Street, providing relief to millions of people and setting them on a path to success.
No American should shoulder debt to receive an education. Let’s call on Congress to pass the College for All Act and change the rigged system once and for all.
Sign the petition: Congress must pass the College for All Act!
In solidarity,
Ro
