Free College Movements: 2021 Political Movement

The College for All Act

President Biden & Senator Bernie Sanders

"If passed, the College for All Act would make community colleges and trade schools tuition-free for all students. It would also make public four-year colleges and universities as well as public nonprofit minority-serving institutions — such as historically Black colleges and universities — tuition-free for all students from families earning less than $125,000 a year." -CBS News, April, 2021.
