Senate kills UC tuition in budget vote
In Sacramento the Senate approved a tuition abolition amendment to the state budget by 22 to 14, adding 26.6 million to UC funding while stripping the education fee. Speaker Stiern argued fees were unnecessary and mostly funded steam plants and new buildings. Opponents said such policy changes belong outside the budget. The measure could be vetoed by the governor if retained in the final draft.
