That was a HUGE missed opportunity, and I think we can lay a lot of the blame on Senator Zaffarini - one of the only Democrats to support deregulation the first time around, who heard plenty of testimony against dereg this session and still didn’t Senator Hinojosa’s SB 85 out of committee.
Senator Williams wanted to amend Shapiro’s top 10 percent bill to include a provision capping tuition prices at universities who take advantage of the changes to top 10 percent, but alas, it went nowhere.
