“Dreamers are 100% Arizona kids, they are our kids. They should be treated equally. Voters have an opportunity to ensure our Arizona students have the same chance at a college education as their classmates. Let's keep Arizona talent in our state! This November vote YES for our students, vote YES on Prop 308!”

Senator Bob WorsleyABIC co-chair and former Republican Arizona State Senator

“Business leaders want to tap the tremendous talent pool of the 'Dreamers.' We all win when we let them earn their way through college on the same basis as their peers. Our Arizona students are our future Arizona leaders. By supporting Prop. 308 they become self-sufficient, valuable, contributors to our economy and our state.”

Heather CarterExecutive Vice President; former Arizona Republican State Senator

“I'm the Republican mayor of one of the largest conservative cities in America. I think it's smart policy to get rid of this artificial obstacle that currently exists for dreamers who want to go to college. We don't want to stop Arizona kids who we've already educated in k-12 from going to college to become more productive and more self-sufficient. Prop 308 will help accomplish that goal.”

John GilesMayor, Mesa, Arizona

“In-state tuition is a state decision and Arizona voters have an opportunity to come together to ensure our Arizona students have the same chance at education.

Monica VillalobosCEO, Arizona Hispanic Chamber

“Prop. 308 will help fortify our state's future economic growth by encouraging all of our talented students to build their careers here, and that begins with fair in-state college tuition rates.”

John GrahamChairman and CEO, Sunbelt Holdings

“This is a matter of fairness: all Arizona high school graduates should be charged the same tuition. Dreamers deserve the same opportunities as any other Arizona high school graduate. Arizona is their home. We must break this unnecessary barrier and allow Dreamers to continue their education and employment right here in their home state.”

Regina RomeroMayor, Tucson, Arizona

“It's time to start the reversal of very unfair state policy against immigrants, especially those who came as babies and children. Arizona is better than that! Dreamers are Arizonans. We have educated them in our schools since they were children. They have grown up with our grandchildren. It's time for Arizona to allow in-state tuition for Dreamers. I ask all Arizonans to support Dreamers by voting yes on Prop 308.”

David AdameBoard Chairman Chicanos Por La Causa Action Fund

“Arizona kids who want to go to college should be encouraged to do so. Right now we discourage dreamer kids from attending college by imposing higher tuition on them that most can't pay. This is not smart policy for our economy, and this isn't the right way to treat people. Please vote yes on Prop 308.”

David LujanPresident & CEO, Children's Action Alliance

“Dreamers are Arizonans, we have a moral responsibility to support all young people's educational dreams. Arizona voters have once in a life opportunity to transform students' lives through education and help build a future that benefits us all.”

Luis AvilaFounder Instituto & Become Arizona Leadership Council Member

“The Dreamers I know love our country just as much as I do. They attended Arizona public schools, worship at our churches, and some even served in the military as I did. They've lived most of their lives here, and if they graduate from our high schools, they should be eligible for the same in-state tuition as their classmates. Let's get this done.”

Congressman Ruben GallegoLead sponsor of the Higher Education DREAM Act, Legislative District 7

“I love the dreamers. I've met so many of them who embody who we want in this country, and they love being here, and aren't asking for any sort of handout. They just want to earn their way through college and make their way in life. I am confident that when Arizonans sit down and imagine what they would do if they were in the same shoes, they will find both the reason and compassion to vote for Prop 308.”

Tyler MontagueBoard Chair Become Arizona

“Stopping kids from going to college doesn't make sense. It's time for bipartisan policy solutions.

This November, vote YES on Prop 308!”

Carlos AlfaroArizona Director, American Business Immigration Coalition

“I have come to personally know and love many good people who were brought to this country, and who have become a valuable part of our churches, schools, and communities.

Wilford AndersenFormer Mesa School Board President

“Every Arizona high school graduate deserves a fair shot. Dreamers graduating from Arizona high schools should be able to go to college using the same tuition rate as their peers. It’s only fair and it’s the right thing to do. Doing this will open the door for thousands of students to pursue a higher education, which could change the trajectory of their lives, strengthen our economy, and help our state to reach our Achieve60AZ attainment goal.”

Rich NickelPresident and CEO, Education Forward Arizona

“I have a combined 30 years of law enforcement and public safety experience and have served as your Maricopa County Sheriff for six years. As a supporter of DACA, I also support allowing DACA recipients to receive in-state tuition. These youth are already part of the American fabric, contributing to the greatness of our nation, and should have the same benefits as the friends, neighbors, and classmates they’ve grown up alongside. Ensuring DACA recipients have fair opportunities to pursue an education has great value not only for them, but for our entire community. I ask for your support for these Arizona students.”

Paul PenzoneSheriff, Maricopa County

“Local First Arizona supports Prop 308 because educating Arizonans is good for Arizona's economy. Dreamers are children who grew up in Arizona, and they should be considered assets to our communities and our economy. Encouraging them to attend college is the best choice for the future of Arizona. These students should be able to attend our community colleges or universities at the same cost as other in-state students. They don't need a hand out, but they deserve a level playing field.”

Kimber LanningCEO, Local First AZ

“Prop 308 will improve our economy by building our workforce with skilled workers to fill vacant jobs and help local businesses. This is how Arizona will remain competitive nationally.

I ask for your support in voting YES on Prop 308.”

Sintra HoffmanPresident and CEO, WESTMARC

By supporting Prop 308 we are ensuring that these young students become self-sufficient, valuable contributors to our economy and our state.”

“ALL In Education fully supports Prop 308. This ballot measure is imperative to the future of Arizona’s workforce, economy and overall success. As we continue to grow as a state, we must also keep up with the needs of our community - and one of these current needs is ensuring that we have a strong, prepared workforce ready to fill in-demand jobs. By providing Dreamers with access to in-state tuition to our public universities and community colleges, we are providing them with the opportunity to become professionals in our state that make significant contributions to our workforce and communities.”

Stephanie ParraExecutive Director, All in Education

“Helios supports Prop 308 as a statement about what Arizonans say Arizona wants to be—a community that embraces all our students and an economy that keeps our high school graduates in Arizona. Prop 308 is essential to meeting community-driven education progress goals. Plus, each college graduate adds $660,000, on average, to the Arizona economy. We can’t afford to lose these students or their contributions.”

Paul LunaPresident and CEO, Helios Education Foundation

“Prop 308 is one of the most important choices on the ballot this November. As a Republican legislator and as an educator, a high school math teacher, I know the future of our state depends on our youth. Arizona will prosper or fail depending on the grit, determination and education of our youth.”

Michelle UdallRepublican State Representative, LD25

“Prop 308 is consistent with the priorities of Arizonans. We know that the majority of Arizona voters want to reduce financial barriers for students going to college, they want to see more students pursue and complete education or training beyond high school, and a vast majority of Arizonans are consistently supportive of efforts to ensure the state’s 24,000 Dreamers can thrive and contribute to our community.”

Dr. Sybil FrancisPresident & CEO, Center for the Future of Arizona

“Arizona cannot flourish without ensuring that every person in this state has equal access to a high quality education. All students in Arizona deserve to dream big and see a future for themselves right here in the Grand Canyon State. Proposition 308 has the potential to unlock the door to higher education for thousands of Arizona’s students, lighting the path towards a secure future where they can contribute their talents to communities across the state.”

Liz SalazarSr. Policy Strategist, UnidosUS

“Arizona Democrats support Proposition 308 because we believe that all Arizona's high school students deserve a fair shot at paying for college regardless of their immigration status. But this is not a Democrat issue nor a Republican issue. It’s a human issue.”

Raquel TeránChair, Arizona Democratic Party

“New Pathways for Youth supports the passage of Proposition 308. As a fundamental principle of fairness, students who graduate from Arizona high schools should be eligible for in-state tuition rates at Arizona colleges. These students are the future workforce for our state, and we should en- courage them to continue their education right here in Arizona. For the Dreamers at New Pathways for Youth, we want to give them every opportunity to continue their education and contribute to the strength of our economy. Prop 308 has bipartisan support from community, education, and business leaders, after having passed both the House and Senate with votes from both Republicans and Democrats. We encourage a Yes vote on Prop 308 to provide fair access to all Arizona students.”
