    I was glad to join my colleagues on the Senate HELP Committee this morning as we began to lay the groundwork for changing federal laws to improve college access, affordability, enrollment, and completion.http://bit.ly/2BuRqRT

        This tax bill is as anti-education access as it gets. Shameful.

        “By attacking higher education, the new tax bill belies the GOP's ambitious political motivations. The investment we make in young adults today, after all, determines the electorate we have in the future.” -http://bostonreview.net/politics/michael-whinston-the-gop-plan-to-turn-students-into-trump-voters#.Wh20HIePieM.twitter …

        And where does this put your vote on the #TaxReformBill that REPEALS the interest deduction, REPEALS the tax credit for parents, makes grad students PAY TAXES on tuition waivers, and TAXES college endowments that help needy students?

        Seems all the GOP is doing is to throw middle class and poor people to the curb. GOP is morally bankrupt, just corruption to the core.

        But the tax bill you're about to vote for specifically hurts college students be repealing student loan interest deductions. So not helping at all.

        The bill would increase taxes for graduate students by roughly 400 percent. Under the House GOP tax plan, tuition waivers, which allow graduate students to attend collegetuition-free in exchange for working at the university, will be taxed as income.

        How will that happen if scholarship income is taxed but cost of college is no longer deductible?

        If you vote yes on this terrible tax scam, you are sentencing these students and those who want to pursue graduate degrees to a lifetime of debt. So which is it? You can’t support both.

        PLEASE DON'T REPEAL INDIVIDUAL MANDATE. I will be hit with higher taxes as it is as an independent contractor trying to put two kids through pre-school. You will tank the system, send high premiums even higher and make it inaccessible for my family.

        The GOP #TaxScamBill will destroy middle and lower-income families' ability to afford college and graduate school. Shifting the tax burden even further to middle and lower income families is immoral, and it weakens our democracy. We are counting on you to vote NO.

        It is laughable that you are considering to vote for a bill that could make the taxable income of some students as high as 66% (you read that right)http://www.latimes.com/opinion/op-ed/la-oe-marsicano-grad-student-tax-20171127-story,amp.html …

        This is hopeful, but why on earth would you vote for the horribly corrupt and immoral tax bill? Please have a change of heart.

        What will be the point of improving college access when #GOPTaxScam would do away with tuition deductions & make tuition waivers taxable, adding to the very high debt load our grad students incur. How does this make U.S. competitive in high tech & STEM?https://www.cnbc.com/2017/11/16/house-gop-tax-plan-could-increase-taxes-for-grad-students-by-400-percent.html …
