Here is a quote from Travis LeBlanc, a Privacy and Civil Liberties Oversight Board member: Although section 702 is touted as a foreign intelligence tool, it is apparent that a key feature is domestic intelligence and criminal law…
The FAFSA delays continue to demonstrate the impacts on people's lives when Federal programs are just too complex for the average person to navigate.
I am proud of my State for taking steps to automatically enroll students in tuition free opportunities.

Today's hearing appears to be an attempt by my Republican colleagues to justify their inability and lack of desire to act in a bipartisan fashion.

Diversity, equity and inclusion programs play a necessary role in fulfilling that promise of a postsecondary education by connecting students with support.
Every student deserves a welcoming and supportive learning environment, and that's particularly important for students from backgrounds that have faced decades of exclusionary practices and policies.
