In The United States today, student debt is the second highest form of debt in our nation surpassing 1.2 trillion dollars! This is not okay and it must end now. We have a chance to start the process of reversing the student debt crisis today by providing adequate funding to our California schools. This must be a priority for the State Legislature and the Governor!
Why is this important?
I'm starting this petition to ensure our California UC schools get the funding they need. In a world where many nations provide free higher education to their people, it is an embarrassment and a shame that deeply offends me that we have such a tremendous issue with student debt and the problem isn't going away: It's getting worse! This atrocity must end and we have to start that process now!
