[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I will only speak to your last point. DCtag gives you something like 10,000 a year for state schools but not the full difference between in school and out of state tuition.[/quote] [b]This baffles me every time I see it posted here. I graduated from DCPS back in 2000, the first year of the DC TAG. It was $10k back then. How in the world has it not gone up a single cent in 23 years?[/quote][/b] The legislators you vote into office.[/quote] Wrong! DCTAG was created by an act of the U.S. Congress. DC residents have absolutely NO vote in the matter![/quote] Yup. Eleanor Holmes Norton regularly tries to get the amount increased; I believe a bump to $15K got through both houses of Congress a couple of years ago but came out in final budget negotiations. That’s the closest we’ve gotten in recent years. [/quote]
