California Association of Student Financial Aid Administrators (CASFAA)

ACTION ALERT



Governor Schwarzenegger has submitted a new proposed state budget which
would make a number of spending cuts, including eliminating all new Cal
Grants for students at both public and private colleges; and reducing
the value of renewal Cal Grants for all returning University of
California (UC) and California State University (CSU) recipients by
lowering the share of enrollment fees their grants will cover.



The Joint Legislative Budget Committee will be holding hearings on cuts
to education on Monday, June 1st.  YOUR HELP IS NEEDED IMMEDIATELY!



Please contact the following members of the Joint Legislative Budget
Committee by email or by fax using the contact information below as well
as the State Senator and Assembly person representing your district and
school. Let them know how these cuts will affect California students who
need Cal Grant assistance to help finance a college education.  YOUR
VOICE IS IMPORTANT.
