Friends,
This week our campaign kicked off its College Affordability Tour where we are visiting Floridians across the state to talk about the importance of affordable higher education.
I come from a family that struggled to get by. Growing up, I lived in public housing. My adoptive dad had a tough time keeping a job, and my mom worked two jobs just to make ends meet. But no matter what, my mom made sure we received a good education to prepare us for jobs to give us our chance at the American Dream.
I want everyone to have the same shot I did. That’s why when I became Governor, my commitment to Florida families was simple: to hold the line on tuition.
I made that promise and I am proud to say we’ve accomplished our goal! Our students now are able to receive quality educations, start successful careers and live the American dream right here in Florida.
Over the weekend, I signed legislation that righted Charlie Crist’s wrong and eliminated the 15 percent annual increase in tuition he signed into law.
Florida has a great education system that prepares our students for success in college and a career. If we want to make college more accessible, we have to make it more affordable.
For the remainder of this week, I’ll be traveling up and down the state talking to Floridians about making college more affordable.
Thank you for your continued support! Let’s Keep Working!
