Tell Sacramento: Pay Up Big Oil, Pass AB 656

Students and faculty around the state are standing up and speaking out against the budget cuts and rapidly rising student fee increases threatening California's higher education system. Assembly Majority Leader Alberto Torrico, supported by faculty and students across the state, introduced AB 656 earlier this year to re-commit California to invest in higher education. The bill would raise $1 billion for our community colleges and public universities. It was approved by the Assembly Higher Education Committee in July. Now Majority Leader Torrico is issuing a Call to Action to gather 100,000 supporters for AB 656 in 100 days. Make your voice heard.
