SASFAA Board sends letter to Washington

Greetings SASFAA -

President Brad Barnett and I were authorized by the SASFAA Executive Board at last week's meeting to compose and send a letter to all Senators and Representatives in the SASFAA states.  The letter asks for support of the student financial aid programs as well as opposes cuts to these programs pending a looming Super Committee failure.  A failure by the Super Committee would kick off automatic spending cuts - effective January 2013.  A letter was faxed to all 18 Senators and 93 House of Representative Members today.  We want to express our thanks to NASFAA for providing the template that we used as the foundation for crafting our letter.

Feel free to let Brad or myself know if you have any questions.

Thanks,

Amy Berrier
SASFAA Legislative Relations Chair

Brad Barnett
SASFAA President
