ND4 Higher Ed

Please send the New Deal for Higher Education letter to legislators right now!

NYSUT, the PSC’s statewide union affiliate, has taken up our New Deal campaign, and generalized it to both CUNY and SUNY. They are calling for $4.7 billion in new investment for both university systems. This is another sign that our campaign has power and another opportunity to show Albany that there is broad support for fully funded public higher education.
