H.R. 10455
Creates grants for states to offer debt-free public college
Gives federal grants to states that commit to covering unmet college costs so eligible students at in-state public colleges can attend without debt, and the title says DREAMer students could get Pell Grants.
- States would get grants equal to their yearly support for public college operating costs
- States must cap tuition and fees at current levels, with yearly increases tied to inflation
- Pell Grant recipients would get need-based aid first to cover unmet college costs
- Bill title says DREAMer students would become eligible for Federal Pell Grants
