"For every $1 invested in the #CalGrantEquityFramework the state will benefit $26 from that investment in 5 years," says @castudentaid Executive Director @M_LGarcia. We must simplify #CalGrant and remove barriers to financial aid - now is the time to act for students @CAgovernor

Thank you @AsmCervantes and @CaWomensCaucus for supporting the Cal Grant Equity framework making college affordable for all students in CA! 60% of all Cal Grants go to women struggling most to recover from the pandemic. @castudentaid @CollegeOpp @FixFinancialAid @letsunitela

"Directing state resources to students attending CA public universities who have the greatest financial need should be and must be a priority for California leaders," said @SenatorLeyva, Chair of the Senate Education Cmte, on the #CalGrantEquityFramework. https://t.co/FXejBSN7Zr

“The reality is college is ever expensive, and it’s not just the tuition, it’s the nontuition costs.” says #AB1746 author @KevinMcCartyCA. The #CalGrantEquityFramework is the answer to a more affordable California education. Read more by @edsource: https://t.co/D3BWIgXhCV

“If we don’t find it in our political will to invest in our needy students across the state so that they can enroll in and complete college, then we will miss this opportunity to help provide a path to a living wage job and recovery for a generation of students,” @JessieRyanSac

Cal Grant is the largest state financial aid system in the nation. Despite this, many Californians remain underrepresented and underserved. The Cal Grant Equity Framework will bridge the gap and address the financial hurdles students face. #FixFinancialAid #AB1746

As student, financial aid, higher education, and equity advocates, we celebrate last year’s historic investments to expand access to Cal Grant to over 150,000 more students, and we now urge state legislators to support #AB1746. We must make financial aid more accessible now!
