CALL NOW – New Jersey State Senate is Voting on In-state Tuition This Thursday!
Bill S1036 is up for a full Senate vote on Thursday, January 7th. The bill was approved in the Appropriations Committee of both the state Assembly and the Senate on Monday, January 4th. We are very close to a victory and we need each of you to take action!
Please call your State Senator between now and Thursday morning and ask them to support bill S 1036. Below are some talking points...
- In-State Tuition is critical for immigrant youth to access higher education.
- The report recently released by the State Legislative Affairs says providing resident tuition for undocumented high school graduates will not cost the State of NJ any money.
- In-State Tuition is not a public benefit, it’s a way for immigrant youth who have been in NJ for most of their lives to pay more affordable college tuition. They will have to have attended three years of high school in NJ.
- Educating our children and young people will be beneficial for the State of NJ and everyone.
It is crucial that we get this bill on Corzine's desk before he leaves office and it is URGENT that the Senators hear from everyone in support. We cannot wait 4 more years! Its up to us to make this happen.... CALL your Senator NOW!
