How to Host Your Members of Congress

Have Your Legislators Signed on to Support TRIO Yet?

COE needs your help to ensure that the maximum number of legislators sign on to support our efforts to boost TRIO funding

The Biden-Harris Administration has asked Congress to provide a $107 million (or 9%) funding increase for TRIO for a total proposed appropriation of $1.3 billion in FY24.

TRIO FUNDING LETTERS

Thanks to your hard work, and more than 450 Capitol Hill meetings during Policy Seminar, last year 56 Senators signed on.

COE applauds this proposed increase and will fight for this amount as it would allow TRIO programs to move closer to its goal of serving 1 million students and provide much-needed cost-of-living increases for all current programs to serve students more intensively.
