Legislation
A number of bills were introduced this session that focused on higher education, including legislation that would have altered the Noriega Bill, which focuses on tuition for immigrant students. We also tracked bills that would have decreased textbook costs for students and others that would have brought more attention to the core curriculum. Each of these bills died.

DCCCD worked diligently on several other bills, but they did not survive this tumultuous session. Other more troubling bills died, only to be revived at the last minute as amendments to other legislation. After we finalize our review of the legislation that survived, we will develop a more in-depth analysis. [View the list of accomplishments identified by the House]
