Free Education for All!!!
"Education is a right, not a privilege!!
No student should be burdened with Post-Secondary education debt, specifically tuition fees, that by the time they have their degree they are unable to enjoy what they've taken away with them from their education.
Education is about growth and progress, and making students fall into debt tells the economy that education is a risk rather than an incentive. Students should not be treated as risk takers, they are people looking to enhance their lives and enrich themselves and our nation through higher learning. The contributions in the end are rewarding both financially and mentally for our entire nation.
By eliminating tuition costs students and prospective students alike, will be less worried about what they owe after school and instead be wondering what they can actually achieve and contribute.
The undersigned agree with me that tuition fees need to be eliminated now, not later.
Thank You

Why is this important?
Robert Applebaum has started a conversation with his petition to call on Congress to enact Student Debt relief from the millions of us who have burdensome student loan debt.
I believe that tuition fees for students that work hard to make it to college, then to be burdened with tuition fee debt later on, are a obstacle to progress and growth in this country.
