NY has the best state U system in the US - SUNY! and CUNY in NYC. We need these public colleges fully funded - for our future - so low-income people can go to college without debt. FDR had it right!

Did you know that many low-income hi schoolers don't even know that there are Pell & other grants to apply for? Students on public assistance and other low-income students often are ignored by Counselors. Yet the surest route out of Poverty = a college degree.

Urging NYS legislature: Erase barriers by providing an awareness program in hi- schools for low-income students & families on public assistance to inform of college grants & opps. A college degree is the surest path out of poverty. vimeo.com/809894901

Biden is prepared to make a deal for stricter work requirements on TANF. This will have profoundly bad effects on families trying to stabilize from the impact of poverty. “balancing the budget on the backs of poor people” once again!!

Tell Pres Biden not to balance our budget on the backs of the poor. If he wants to cut big bucks he should look at corporate welfare and subsidies -twice as big as social welfare. whitehouse.gov/contact/

Congrats and thank YOU Gov Hochul. The best-kept secret in NYC (that all hi school grads are guaranteed a seat at a CUNY) has become a statewide opportunity! Hoping to c many more low-income students in college!! governor.ny.gov/news/governor-…

He linger Report: under Republican deal to avert default, more work rules are being added to SNAP and other benefits. Advocates say that these types of restrictions are deterring Americans from going to college &getting higher-wages. Sad fact abt Repubs holding low-income back.

Awesome! Thank you! About time! The GI Bill and Higher education built the middle class - but was only for whites! A new broader bill should be a national priority. Studies show Americans are woefully under educated.

Distract them with eye- catching headlines and shallow stories that do not lead to deep thinking is a plan that has been going on at least since Regan and may not have peaked yet. Deep reading, deep writing, deep thinking, education and sharing with others what we’ve learned.Yes!
