The November election will directly impact your student tuition. Proposition 30: “The Schools and Local Public Safety Protection Act”
CSU Tuition is up more than 300% in past decade – another 9% just this fall. But this November, students can vote on higher or lower tuition…
Proposition 30: “The Schools and Local Public Safety Protection Act” Increases income tax on the rich for 7 years Increases the sales tax for 4 years by ¼ percent Generates $8.5 billion in the first year and $5-7 billion each year after. Frees up $5.6 billion for higher ed and other vital programs. For CSU students, it means a 9% tuition refund = $498
If Prop 30 DOESN’Tpass… The CSU would get cut by $250 million, and tuition could go up $150. Plus no refund – a $648 increase over last year! If Prop 30 doesn’t pass, the Board of Trustees plans: Faculty and staff layoffs Enrollment Cuts Class elimination Program elimination
If Prop 30 DOESN’Tpass… Primary education suffers massive cuts. K-12 schools could lose 3 weeks of the school year.
