THURGOOD MARSHALL COLLEGE FUND STATEMENT ON NOVEMBER 2019 CONTINUING RESOLUTION

WASHINGTON, DC (November 18, 2019) – “This afternoon, the U.S. House of Representatives unveiled the Continuing Resolution which will continue funding the federal government through December 20, 2019. The Thurgood Marshall College Fund (TMCF) expresses its sincere disappointment of Congress’ failure to include critical Title III, Part F funding for Historically Black Colleges and Universities and other Minority-Serving Institutions in the Continuing Resolution. Despite this turn of events, TMCF will continue to work with congressional leaders to ensure this funding – which enjoys bipartisan and bicameral support – to ensure this vital funding is restored to these life-changing institutions and the students they serve.” Harry L. Williams, TMCF president & CEO
