Summary
This resolution directs the ASUC to strongly urge Governor Gavin Newsom to sign AB-7 into law, affirming California's commitment to reparative justice and equity in higher education. AB-7 would authorize a reparative admissions preference for descendants of slavery in California’s higher education institutions. This action matters to students by addressing historical harms and persistent disparities in educational access for Black students.
