Today, President Barack Obama is heading to the state of Tennessee to announce a huge proposal that will make sure the country’s 1,1000 community colleges is more accessible, and “free for everybody who is willing to work for it,” according to a statement by the Commander-in-chief.
The proposed two years of tuition free community college program will, according to the White House, make community college as universal as high school is today.
From USA Today, “Put simply, what I’d like to do is to see the first two years of community college free for anybody who’s willing to work for it,” said Obama aboard Air Force One amid a three-state tour to preview his State of the Union Address. “It’s something we can accomplish, and it’s something that will train our workforce so that we can compete with anyone in the world.”
