AHCA's Medicaid Cuts Would Harm Students and Threaten State Funding for Postsecondary Education [PDF]

Center for Postsecondary and Economic Success at CLASP (June 2017)

This report draws together what the National Association of State Budget Officers have said for years: state higher education funding is being crowded out by Medicaid funding. In Michigan alone, this report calculates that Michigan still has a shortfall of $484 million in higher education funding when comparing 2008 and 2016. The report then places that in context against the estimated $17 billion needed to fully offset federal Medicaid reductions in Michigan from 2019 to 2028 under the U.S. House's proposed health care law.

 

A Stronger Nation: Michigan's Progress Toward the Goal

Lumina Foundation (July 2017)

The Lumina Foundation's Big Goal of 60 percent of Americans holding a high-quality postsecondary credential by 2025 continues to draw closer. Michigan now has 43.4 percent of its adult population holding a degree or a high-quality certificate, essentially static from last year's figure of 43.3 percent. Among racial and ethnic subcategories, this percentage ranges from a low of 20.7 percent of American Indians to a high of Asian and Pacific Islanders at 70.2 percent.
