At Monday's Boston Chamber of Commerce forum, Senate President Karen Spilka is set to announce a proposal to make community college free to all students and plans to make a 'forceful' call in support of 'Raise the Age' legislation, which would gradually expand juvenile jurisdiction to include young adults between the ages of 18 and 20.
Senate President Karen Spilka sits in the Senate chamber ahead of delivering inaugural remarks on Jan. 4, 2023.
According to Spilka's office, the pricey plan — one report estimated offering tuition-free community college to all would cost the state about $170 million per year — will be woven into her chamber's annual budget due for release next month. The early commitment immediately provides one predictable obstacle in upcoming House and Senate budget negotiations, as the House's budget set to be debated this week does not feature universal free community college.
