CCSF budget woes

It’s no secret CCSF is in financial trouble.  

This month, the BoT is going to pass some version of a budget that assumes reductions through combinations of wage reductions and layoffs, aka people and/or pay. Administration’s message is clear. They are coming for us despite knowing full-well that we cannot cut our way out of our financial troubles.

We analyze and scrutinize these budget scenarios often and the math is simple: Public education is grossly underfunded. A deep dive into their budget projections right now is not going to address that.

The first step to winning on issues that matter to you — like layoffs and work speedups — is to bring more revenue into the college. This November election, the ballot holds concrete proposals to bring millions of dollars to City College. Will you take the first step in fighting the district’s austerity plan and pass prop 15?
