Governor's UC Budget Proposal

The governor's budget proposal for 2020-21 (which begins on July 1) has been released. Below is the proposal for UC. Note that yours truly doesn't think much about distinctions between "ongoing" and "one time." It's all dollars. Basically, we are getting a little more than a 1 percent increase under the proposal. Why so low? Partly it's the tuition freeze. Partly it's that the governor is proposing only a small increase in state spending. A reminder this is a proposal. Between now and July 1, it will work its way through the legislature and the May revise of the proposal itself. The numbers released are below:
