Bill Clinton: “I want college tuition to be tax deductible up to $10,000 a year. I want to give unemployed and underemployed workers…”

On the recordSeptember 2, 1996
I want college tuition to be tax deductible up to $10,000 a year. I want to give unemployed and underemployed workers access to a skill grant worth up to $2600 a year, so that if you lose your job, you're changing jobs, and you need more education, you can get the grant, you can take it to the nearest community college or training facility so that even if you're 45 or 55 or 60, if you need more skills to support your family and improve your lot in life. Instead of being left behind in the race to the 21st century, we will take you along the way. Will you help me build that kind of bridge? Audience members. Yes!
