END OF SPECIAL SESSION: HIGHER ED AND TOPS CUT

This outcome is beyond disappointing. Tonight our state defaulted on the promise of TOPS earned by tens of thousands of students. Additionally, our higher education enterprise鈥攁lready ranked last in the nation in per-student funding鈥攚ill receive an approximate $96 million cut. I鈥檓 hopeful a compromise is in the near future, one that prioritizes education. For your future. For our future.
