Obama Proposes Making Community College Free for Everyone

‘I want to make two years of community college free for everybody who is willing to work for it’

"I’m also going to do is announce a proposal that I’m going to be making to make sure that Community College is accessible for everybody.

Put simply, what I’d like to do is to see the first two years of community college free for everybody who is willing to work for it. That’s right, free for everybody that’s willing to work for it. It’s something that we can accomplish and it’s something that will train our workforce so that we can compete with anybody in the world.

So I hope you will have a chance to tune in as we make these proposals and I hope we got to chance to make sure the Congress gets behind these kinds of efforts to ensure that even as we rebound and grow in 2015 that it benefits everybody and not just some.”
