Tuition Waivers to
San Bernardino
Sacramento, California
____ Wednesday January 20th, Assemblyman Jay Obernolte (R-Hesperia) announced
that he is co-authoring Senate Bill 893, which seeks to provide an
undergraduate tuition fee waiver for surviving children and spouses of the
victims of the San Bernardino terrorist attack.
“The terrorist attack at
the Inland Regional Center shocked the nation and devastated the residents of
San Bernardino County,” stated Assemblyman Jay Obernolte.
“As the local community recovers from this horrific incident,
it’s a small token of our sympathy to offer the surviving family members free
tuition at California’s colleges and universities.”
