This resolution endorses "The Arts, Music, and Programming (AMP) Initiative," a student-led referendum to increase the ASUC Fee by $8.00 per undergraduate student per semester. This fee increase, starting Fall 2026 and ending Spring 2036, will provide crucial funding for ASUC SUPERB to expand high-quality entertainment and arts events, and for Berkeley Student Media to offer free media production equipment, thereby enriching student life and culture at UC Berkeley. One-third of the fee increase will also be allocated to financial aid.

Fiscal Impact $529,120 per academic year starting Fall 2026 – Spring 2036
