The increase was temporary, and it will be gone as of July 2026, regardless of whether the budget passes. Students are really quite concerned about what's going to happen after July 2026. That's why I'm here today. I'm asking you to consider making this program and the investments permanent. Students can't make decisions when they don't know if they'll have money to continue their studies the following year. As such, my priority is to ensure that investments in the program become permanent.
