It's time for a #FairDeal for SUNY.
Urge legislators to increase funding for SUNY-state operated college & universities by $141.8 million (only 0.05% of the total $260 billion Executive Budget).
Students deserve a first-rate education. The budget should reflect that.

UUP is asking for support for SUNY campuses to ensure the highest quality education & experience remains accessible to all students. #FairFunding for #SUNY means $41.8M in FY 26-27.

EOP student retention is higher than the SUNY-wide average and over 78% of EOP students live & work in NYS after graduation. This is the kind of academic success we should all get behind. Albany should increase EOP funding to provide upward mobility to all students. #FairFunding
