Climate change is a global emergency
Tell lawmakers: Protect Californians from climate change!
We need full funding for UC!
Ask your lawmakers to vote in support of full funding for UC. We need to support education and research more than ever before.

“Due to COVID-19 I lost my job, lived in my car, and stayed late at school to finish my coursework. If the Pell Grant was doubled it would prevent me from falling back into that life of uncertainty.”

Double the Pell
Cost shouldn’t stop anyone from going to college. It’s time to increase federal financial aid. We’re asking legislators to double the maximum Pell Grant award.
