Our take

What we think, in plain words.

This bill is a good idea because it would help young people who are homeless or in foster care get a better chance at going to college. By letting them use a special program at tribal colleges, it helps them learn skills and get jobs. This is important because everyone deserves a fair shot at an education, and this bill helps make that happen for some of our most vulnerable youth.
