@anecdotal @BenCecil Hi Hollis, thanks for sharing! This round of polling was focused on learning more about the students who attend these institutions. We work on transfer issues in other ways!

A court intervened in ED’s new grad loan cap rules—but for now the rule still takes effect tomorrow. The legal status allows for programs to challenge, so we’ll see how they respond as implementation moves forward. More from @USATODAY: https://t.co/Xl52wzE7Fx

We're proud to endorse the Pell Grant Preservation and Expansion Act of 2026. Pell is the foundation of our financial aid system, but its purchasing power has not kept pace with rising college costs. Students need a Pell Grant that grows with the reality they face.

[Committee on Education & Workforce Democrats @EdWorkforceDems]

Today, @BobbyScott joined Congressional Democrats to introduce the Pell Grant Preservation and Expansion Act of 2026 and fight back against Republicans' attacks on the most important tool we have to help students afford college.

Happy 54th birthday to the Pell Grant 🎉

The Pell Grant is the foundation of our nation’s financial aid system, but today, it is being asked to do more with less. Congress must act to close the gap and protect the grant from continued funding shortfalls. Learn more at https://t.co/rwCeBtcUNR 💡

Federal scholarship tax credits could inject new funding into public schools, but only if they can compete with established private-school networks. Our newest memo lays out how states can help public-serving organizations become SGOs fast. 🔗: https://t.co/i6ESLT0XiS

[Third Way Education @ThirdWayEDU]

Over 7 million students each year rely on the Pell Grant to afford college. But with continued funding shortfalls, access to higher education could narrow for the students who need it most. Congress must act to protect Pell. Learn more at https://t.co/rwCeBtcUNR.
