So says the state’s new governor, Gavin Newsom.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Housing. This is the issue,” Newsom said at a press conference earlier this month, unveiling his \u003ca href=\"http://www.ebudget.ca.gov/FullBudgetSummary.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">first budget proposal as governor\u003c/a>. “Unless we get serious about it, this state will continue to lose its middle class, and the dream will be limited to fewer and fewer people.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Middle-class Californians could find some relief under Newsom’s $209 billion budget, which includes new spending aimed at getting cities to approve more housing. Other proposals could bring down the cost of health care and higher education for Californians who currently make too much to qualify for state help.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But middle-class California families won’t find much help shouldering other expenses, like the looming cost of caring for aging family members.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>What does “middle-class” even mean in California?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a state where families of four earning up to $117,400 meet the federal government’s definition of “low-income” in \u003ca href=\"https://www.nytimes.com/2018/06/30/us/bay-area-housing-market.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">certain regions\u003c/a>, there may be no definitive answer on what qualifies as “middle-class.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But according to a recent \u003ca href=\"http://www.pewresearch.org/fact-tank/2018/09/06/the-american-middle-class-is-stable-in-size-but-losing-ground-financially-to-upper-income-families/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Pew Research Center analysis\u003c/a> of government wage data, families of four in California can be considered middle-class if they make anywhere between $59,702 and $179,105 per year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Direct subsidies in the governor’s budget tend to go toward Californians making less. Newsom noted that no state has a higher \u003ca href=\"https://laist.com/2018/09/12/california_still_has_the_nations_highest_poverty_rate_blame_housing_costs.php\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">poverty rate\u003c/a> than California. He wants to try to lower it by giving higher tax refunds to full-time workers earning up to $15 an hour through an expanded version of the state’s earned income tax credit.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He’s also proposing a large boost in spending to subsidize the development of affordable housing for low-income residents. His budget calls for increasing the state’s low-income housing tax credit from $80 million to $500 million per year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The budget also includes a $500-million bump to the California Housing Finance Agency’s mixed‑income loan program, which finances developments that include units for moderate-income residents.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/embed/SrWC9XnKPKI?start=3865\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Housing\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>The governor’s budget doesn’t propose similar housing subsidies for most middle-class Californians. Matthew Lewis, director of communications for the pro-housing group \u003ca href=\"https://cayimby.org/about/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">California YIMBY\u003c/a>, said that approach makes sense.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“As a matter of policy, you don’t provide subsidies to people who are making over $80,000 a year,” said Lewis. “But in California, that’s the middle class.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lewis doesn’t think Newsom can subsidize his way toward a solution to the state’s housing crisis. Instead, he and other housing advocates like what Newsom’s budget does to push local governments to approve more housing in general.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It appears that Governor Newsom is himself a YIMBY,” said Lewis.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Under Newsom’s budget, cities that meet housing goals set by the state would be rewarded with money from a $500 million state fund, and they could use that money for whatever they want.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"alignright\">\n\u003ch3>\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11719937/controversial-bay-area-housing-plan-heads-to-state-legislature\">Controversial Bay Area Housing Plan Heads to State Legislature\u003c/a>\u003c/h3>\n\u003cfigure>\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11719937/controversial-bay-area-housing-plan-heads-to-state-legislature\">\u003cimg decoding=\"async\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/01/GettyImages-1046169802-1020x680.jpg\" alt=\"\">\u003c/a>\u003c/figure>\n\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>“In other words, he’s starting to build funds that would actually financially encourage cities to build more housing,” said \u003ca href=\"https://beaconecon.com/people/bio/christopher_thornberg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Chris Thornberg of Beacon Economics\u003c/a>.

She has asthma, a pre-existing condition that made individual coverage unaffordable in the past.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Back in 2014, “My premium was $356 for a platinum plan,” Altman said. “I thought that was super affordable.”\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"alignright\">\n\u003ch3>\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11716531/newsoms-first-act-as-governor-expanding-health-coverage\">Newsom’s First Act as Governor?

So says the state’s new governor, Gavin Newsom.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Housing. This is the issue,” Newsom said at a press conference earlier this month, unveiling his \u003ca href=\"http://www.ebudget.ca.gov/FullBudgetSummary.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">first budget proposal as governor\u003c/a>. “Unless we get serious about it, this state will continue to lose its middle class, and the dream will be limited to fewer and fewer people.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Middle-class Californians could find some relief under Newsom’s $209 billion budget, which includes new spending aimed at getting cities to approve more housing. Other proposals could bring down the cost of health care and higher education for Californians who currently make too much to qualify for state help.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But middle-class California families won’t find much help shouldering other expenses, like the looming cost of caring for aging family members.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>What does “middle-class” even mean in California?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a state where families of four earning up to $117,400 meet the federal government’s definition of “low-income” in \u003ca href=\"https://www.nytimes.com/2018/06/30/us/bay-area-housing-market.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">certain regions\u003c/a>, there may be no definitive answer on what qualifies as “middle-class.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But according to a recent \u003ca href=\"http://www.pewresearch.org/fact-tank/2018/09/06/the-american-middle-class-is-stable-in-size-but-losing-ground-financially-to-upper-income-families/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Pew Research Center analysis\u003c/a> of government wage data, families of four in California can be considered middle-class if they make anywhere between $59,702 and $179,105 per year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Direct subsidies in the governor’s budget tend to go toward Californians making less. Newsom noted that no state has a higher \u003ca href=\"https://laist.com/2018/09/12/california_still_has_the_nations_highest_poverty_rate_blame_housing_costs.php\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">poverty rate\u003c/a> than California. He wants to try to lower it by giving higher tax refunds to full-time workers earning up to $15 an hour through an expanded version of the state’s earned income tax credit.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He’s also proposing a large boost in spending to subsidize the development of affordable housing for low-income residents. His budget calls for increasing the state’s low-income housing tax credit from $80 million to $500 million per year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The budget also includes a $500-million bump to the California Housing Finance Agency’s mixed‑income loan program, which finances developments that include units for moderate-income residents.\u003c/p>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutube'>\n \u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutubeInside'>\n \u003ciframe\n loading='lazy'\n class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__youtubePlayer'\n type='text/html'\n src='//www.youtube.com/embed/SrWC9XnKPKI?start=3865'\n title='//www.youtube.com/embed/SrWC9XnKPKI?start=3865'\n allowfullscreen='true'\n style='border:0;'>\u003c/iframe>\n \u003c/span>\n \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003ch3>Housing\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>The governor’s budget doesn’t propose similar housing subsidies for most middle-class Californians. Matthew Lewis, director of communications for the pro-housing group \u003ca href=\"https://cayimby.org/about/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">California YIMBY\u003c/a>, said that approach makes sense.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“As a matter of policy, you don’t provide subsidies to people who are making over $80,000 a year,” said Lewis. “But in California, that’s the middle class.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lewis doesn’t think Newsom can subsidize his way toward a solution to the state’s housing crisis. Instead, he and other housing advocates like what Newsom’s budget does to push local governments to approve more housing in general.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It appears that Governor Newsom is himself a YIMBY,” said Lewis.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Under Newsom’s budget, cities that meet housing goals set by the state would be rewarded with money from a $500 million state fund, and they could use that money for whatever they want.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"alignright\">\n\u003ch3>\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11719937/controversial-bay-area-housing-plan-heads-to-state-legislature\">Controversial Bay Area Housing Plan Heads to State Legislature\u003c/a>\u003c/h3>\n\u003cfigure>\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11719937/controversial-bay-area-housing-plan-heads-to-state-legislature\">\u003cimg decoding=\"async\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/01/GettyImages-1046169802-1020x680.jpg\" alt=\"\">\u003c/a>\u003c/figure>\n\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>“In other words, he’s starting to build funds that would actually financially encourage cities to build more housing,” said \u003ca href=\"https://beaconecon.com/people/bio/christopher_thornberg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Chris Thornberg of Beacon Economics\u003c/a>. He said that should help address California’s housing supply problems. “That’s really helpful for California’s middle class.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Newsom has also discussed punishing cities that fail to meet their housing goals by withholding transit funding. It’s an idea that has not gone over well with local governments.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In \u003ca href=\"http://www.cacities.org/Top/News/Press-Releases/2019/League-of-California-Cities-Issues-Statement-on-Go\">a statement\u003c/a> on the governor’s budget, League of California Cities executive director Carolyn Coleman said her organization was concerned about proposals “that would raid local transportation funds that voters have repeatedly dedicated to local communities.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Health Care\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>The words “middle-class” only appear once in Newsom’s \u003ca href=\"http://www.ebudget.ca.gov/FullBudgetSummary.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">280-page budget proposal\u003c/a>. They show up under his plan to expand health care subsidies.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One Californian encouraged by that move is Heather Altman. She works as an environmental consultant out of her home in Long Beach. She gets to be her own boss, and she makes decent money.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I guess I do consider myself middle class,” Altman said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She would not have started her business back in 2014 without Obamacare. It meant she could finally afford her own health insurance. She no longer needed to get it through an employer. She has asthma, a pre-existing condition that made individual coverage unaffordable in the past.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Back in 2014, “My premium was $356 for a platinum plan,” Altman said. “I thought that was super affordable.”\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"alignright\">\n\u003ch3>\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11716531/newsoms-first-act-as-governor-expanding-health-coverage\">Newsom’s First Act as Governor?

Altman has switched to a plan with a lower premium. But add in the routine costs of treating her asthma, and she’s spending more than $800 a month.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“That’s very difficult to budget,” Altman said. “And it certainly isn’t sustainable.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Currently, individuals who earn up to $48,560 a year are eligible for \u003ca href=\"https://www.healthforcalifornia.com/covered-california/income-limits\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">subsidized premiums\u003c/a> through Covered California. Altman makes too much to qualify. But Newsom’s budget calls for raising annual income limits for individuals to $72,840 and for families of four to $150,600.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Had that subsidy bracket been in place when I started my business, there would have been years that I would have qualified,” Altman said. “I’m hopeful that some of these changes may make a meaningful difference in my financial bottom line.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-11721624\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/01/Healthcare-Subsidies-chart-800x618.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"618\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/01/Healthcare-Subsidies-chart-800x618.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/01/Healthcare-Subsidies-chart-160x124.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/01/Healthcare-Subsidies-chart-1020x788.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/01/Healthcare-Subsidies-chart-1200x927.jpg 1200w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/01/Healthcare-Subsidies-chart.jpg 1650w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Altman has shared her story with the advocacy organization \u003ca href=\"https://health-access.org/about-us/staff/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Health Access California\u003c/a>. Executive director Anthony Wright said Newsom’s budget is promising for Californians like her.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Current law has cliffs where the assistance runs out,” Wright said. “The extra help will allow some families to get coverage that otherwise couldn’t afford it.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Newsom plans to pay for the expanded subsidies by creating a state version of the Affordable Care Act’s federal mandate to either buy health insurance or pay a tax penalty (which has gone to $0 under the Trump administration).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In \u003ca href=\"https://lao.ca.gov/Publications/Report/3916?utm_source=laowww&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=3916\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">a report\u003c/a> on the governor’s budget, the California Legislative Analyst’s Office notes that this approach could create a funding conflict. If the state tax penalty works, it should drive more people to buy insurance. But then, “less funding would be available for premium subsidies.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>College\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Higher education is another big drain on middle-class budgets. Newsom’s budget calls for a tuition freeze at state universities, earmarking $300 million for the California State University system and $240 million for the University of California system each year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>University of Southern California professor of sociology \u003ca href=\"https://dornsife.usc.edu/pere/pastor/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Manuel Pastor\u003c/a> said middle-class families could also get a break under Newsom’s $40 million plan to make a second year of community college tuition-free.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If you can make the first and second year free, you’re lowering the cost for a lot of middle class parents of a four-year education,” Pastor said.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>The Cost of Caring for Family Members, Young and Old\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Universal preschool and six months of paid family leave for parents are still on Newsom’s agenda.

Some caregivers have to quit their jobs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Family members in general sacrifice a lot,” said Benton. “And then when they go to look for services for themselves, usually they’re not going to qualify.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Benton was part of a state task force that issued a \u003ca href=\"http://tffc.usc.edu/2018/07/02/final-report-from-the-california-task-force-on-family-caregiving-2/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">number of recommendations\u003c/a> to help ease the cost.

"content": "\u003cp>Emelyn Jerónimo is only 12 years old, but she already has $3,000 saved toward college. Socked away by her mother in chunks of $100 or less since Jerónimo was in kindergarten, the money may not seem like much, but it’s helped fuel the San Francisco sixth-grader’s dreams of becoming a pediatrician.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Jerónimo’s nest egg is part of a first-of-its-kind program that automatically sets up college savings accounts for every kindergartner in San Francisco’s public schools, each seeded with $50 from the city treasury. And if Gov. Gavin Newsom gets his way, the model could soon roll out to other cities across California.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Newsom launched \u003ca href=\"https://sfgov.org/ofe/k2c\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Kindergarten to College\u003c/a> as mayor of San Francisco in 2010, and last week he proposed spending $50 million on similar pilot projects around the state as part of what he’s calling a cradle-to-career education strategy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“You want to address the stresses, the costs of education?” Newsom said at a press conference unveiling his 2019-20 \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/articles/blog/gavin-newsom-budget-takeaways/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">budget\u003c/a>. “Let’s start funding those costs when people enter into kindergarten.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Fans of so-called child savings accounts say they help children envision themselves attending college from a young age. Families of San Francisco public school students, many of whom are low-income, have saved a total of $3.4 million of their own money in the Kindergarten to College accounts, according to city Treasurer José Cisneros.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Only about 1 in 5 students have contributed money beyond what the city supplies. That still outpaces the percentage of U.S. families \u003ca href=\"https://www.salliemae.com/assets/Research/HAP/HowAmericaPaysforCollege2017.pdf\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">contributing\u003c/a> to 529 plans, tax-deferred accounts that provide another option for college savings—as Cisneros is quick to point out.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“To me, when you have millions of dollars saved for college and it’s coming in part from the poorest families in the city, that’s a huge win,” argues Cisneros, who said Newsom has told him he wants to model the California program on San Francisco’s approach. “This is sending a signal to thousands of kids in our city that college is something that’s going to be part of your future.”\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"alignright\">\n\u003ch3>\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11641238/how-the-san-francisco-school-lottery-works-and-how-it-doesnt-2\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">BAY CURIOUS: How the San Francisco School Lottery Works, And How It Doesn't\u003c/a>\u003c/h3>\n\u003cfigure>\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11641238/how-the-san-francisco-school-lottery-works-and-how-it-doesnt-2\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u003cimg src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/01/school-lottery-1180x664.jpg\" alt=\"\">\u003c/a>\u003c/figure>\n\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>While individual 529 accounts can require savers to fill out complex paperwork, pay fees or navigate online management tools, parents learn about the Kindergarten to College accounts through a letter from their children’s school. They can make deposits in cash at bank branches or school campuses, and because the program is universal, they don’t have to provide proof of income or citizenship status to participate.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A number of other states and cities have also established child savings accounts, funded with either public or philanthropic dollars. It’s a relatively new idea, so most accounts haven’t been around long enough for researchers to study long-term outcomes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Still, there are some signs the programs may be working. Researchers in Oklahoma \u003ca href=\"https://openscholarship.wustl.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=1325&context=csd_research\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">studied\u003c/a> 2,700 families with children born in 2007, randomly selecting half of them to receive $1,000 in a college savings account at the child’s birth.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>They found that children with accounts scored higher on measures of social and emotional development than those in the control group. Their mothers were more likely to report higher educational expectations for their children, the researchers found, and even exhibited less depression than those in the control group.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One reason the accounts may appeal to policymakers: They’re relatively simple to supply when compared with addressing systemic inequities that affect educational success, such as access to social networks and family wealth.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Social capital is really important for people but hard to give to them,” said William Elliott, director of the Center for Assets, Education and Inclusion at the University of Michigan. “But we can give them money in their account.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11720323\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/01/RS34777_GettyImages-1078853280-qut-800x533.jpg\" alt=\"Gov.

But those dollars could also be spent shoring up California’s financial aid system. More than 200,000 eligible students applied for the state’s Cal Grant scholarships last year and didn’t receive one. Newsom has called for a modest increase in the number of those grants, along with boosting the amounts awarded to student parents.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Advocates for the savings accounts, however, argue that investments in financial aid are better made earlier in a child’s educational career. Some even say that federal Pell Grants—need-based scholarships for higher education—should be divided into two chunks, with one given out during childhood.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Financial aid is in many ways kind of too late,” said Cisneros, the city treasurer in San Francisco. “It’s not there early enough to send a message to 5-, 6- or 7-year-olds that college is something you have every right to have access to.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Researchers are also studying whether rewards cards could help parents who are living paycheck to paycheck save for college by giving them cash back on grocery purchases, and whether universal child savings accounts counteract implicit bias among teachers by encouraging them to see all students as college-bound. California could become a laboratory to test those ideas if the Legislature signs off on Newsom’s plan later this spring.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Meanwhile, Sierra, a stay-at-home mom who never went to college herself, says her daughters’ savings accounts have given her an excuse to talk to them about higher education.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I tell them, ‘Don’t worry about what we have or what we don’t have,’ ” she said. “Just keep studying, and you’ll get to college.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>CALmatters.org is a nonprofit, nonpartisan media venture explaining California policies and politics.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\n",

They can make deposits in cash at bank branches or school campuses, and because the program is universal, they don’t have to provide proof of income or citizenship status to participate.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A number of other states and cities have also established child savings accounts, funded with either public or philanthropic dollars. It’s a relatively new idea, so most accounts haven’t been around long enough for researchers to study long-term outcomes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Still, there are some signs the programs may be working. Researchers in Oklahoma \u003ca href=\"https://openscholarship.wustl.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=1325&context=csd_research\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">studied\u003c/a> 2,700 families with children born in 2007, randomly selecting half of them to receive $1,000 in a college savings account at the child’s birth.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>They found that children with accounts scored higher on measures of social and emotional development than those in the control group. Their mothers were more likely to report higher educational expectations for their children, the researchers found, and even exhibited less depression than those in the control group.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One reason the accounts may appeal to policymakers: They’re relatively simple to supply when compared with addressing systemic inequities that affect educational success, such as access to social networks and family wealth.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Social capital is really important for people but hard to give to them,” said William Elliott, director of the Center for Assets, Education and Inclusion at the University of Michigan. “But we can give them money in their account.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11720323\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/01/RS34777_GettyImages-1078853280-qut-800x533.jpg\" alt=\"Gov.

But those dollars could also be spent shoring up California’s financial aid system. More than 200,000 eligible students applied for the state’s Cal Grant scholarships last year and didn’t receive one. Newsom has called for a modest increase in the number of those grants, along with boosting the amounts awarded to student parents.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Advocates for the savings accounts, however, argue that investments in financial aid are better made earlier in a child’s educational career. Some even say that federal Pell Grants—need-based scholarships for higher education—should be divided into two chunks, with one given out during childhood.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Financial aid is in many ways kind of too late,” said Cisneros, the city treasurer in San Francisco. “It’s not there early enough to send a message to 5-, 6- or 7-year-olds that college is something you have every right to have access to.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Researchers are also studying whether rewards cards could help parents who are living paycheck to paycheck save for college by giving them cash back on grocery purchases, and whether universal child savings accounts counteract implicit bias among teachers by encouraging them to see all students as college-bound. California could become a laboratory to test those ideas if the Legislature signs off on Newsom’s plan later this spring.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Meanwhile, Sierra, a stay-at-home mom who never went to college herself, says her daughters’ savings accounts have given her an excuse to talk to them about higher education.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I tell them, ‘Don’t worry about what we have or what we don’t have,’ ” she said. “Just keep studying, and you’ll get to college.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Critics say that’s not fair to students who oppose abortion.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Just by attending school and paying student fees, they would be paying for abortion,” said Anna Bakh, Northern California coordinator for Students for Life of America, which has 90 student groups throughout California. “That goes completely against their conscience.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>University officials testified during legislative hearings last year that not all CSU campuses and none of the UC campuses are able to bill and get reimbursed for services through state health programs, like Medi-Cal. It could be too much of an administrative or fiscal burden to establish billing systems needed to do so, they added, meaning some clinical costs, as well as security or liability costs, could fall to them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Up to 519 women at public universities seek a medication abortion every month in California, according to estimates from \u003ca href=\"https://www.jahonline.org/article/S1054-139X(18)30185-X/fulltext\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">a study\u003c/a> published in the Journal of Adolescent Health last summer.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The same research found that off-campus abortion providers were an average 6 miles away from public university campuses.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That’s an easy Uber ride away, said abortion opponent Anna Bakh.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We’re questioning our legislators as to why their solution was to bring abortion onto campus, rather than providing transportation,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Last year, the earlier version of the bill — \u003ca href=\"https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billTextClient.xhtml?bill_id=201720180SB320\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">SB 320\u003c/a> — was approved by the Legislature, but Brown vetoed it, citing the study on average distances students had to travel for abortions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Because the services required by this bill are widely available off-campus, this bill is not necessary,” he wrote in his \u003ca href=\"https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billStatusClient.xhtml?bill_id=201720180SB320\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">veto message\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This was about a month before the election, and then-candidate for governor, Gavin Newsom, said he would have supported the bill. Now that Newsom is in the governor’s office, he did not comment on the current bill.\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",
