Key Highlights:
Propositions 402 & 486: These propositions propose updating the outdated Annual Expenditure Limit, a cap based on data from 1980 that restricts college spending despite available revenue, allowing colleges to use their current funds without raising taxes.
Importance of the Adjustment: Updating the Expenditure Limit will allow colleges to continue offering high-quality, affordable education without increasing taxes. If this adjustment is not approved, colleges will be forced to pay a large fine if the Expenditure Limit is exceeded or make drastic budget cuts. In the Maricopa County Community College District, this could mean cutting $100 million.
Role of Community Colleges: They offer accessible and affordable education, job training, and lifelong learning, which are vital for Arizona's growth.
Make Your Voice Heard: Vote “Yes” on Proposition 402 and Proposition 486 to support Arizona’s community colleges and workforce.
