Congressman Doggett Joins Students from Across Central Texas to Salute Historic Investments In Higher Education PDF Print

As I discussed with students from across Central Texas at the downtown Austin campus of ACC (which was long the home of my old high school), the Student Aid and Fiscal Responsibility Act invests in our future through a historic commitment to students. The need is great with the number of those receiving financial aid today because of skyrocketing costs having grown by 34% at UT alone in less than a decade. While this investment won't solve all financial challenges, it is a major step forward. Texas students will receive almost $2.5 billion more this decade. To hear my remarks at ACC, please click here.
