 Student Debt National Day of Action

Wells Fargo Student Loans,
John Stumpf, and
Chevron Oil Company.

What do these three have in common?
They’ve created the student debt crisis impacting our communities and growing inequality in education.

283% CSU fee increase since 2002
$170 million in student debt
135% community college tuition increase since 2006-2007.
25% less funding for higher education since 2009.

Today, we have much less funding for education because corporations are not paying their fair share forcing the average student to graduate college with over $30,000 in debt. Two companies are leading the effort to limit their taxes and maximize their profits through high student loans, environmental impacts and tens of millions spent on aggressive lobbying. John Stumpf, CEO of Wells Fargo and Chevron Board Member is at the center of the student debt crisis.

STAND WITH STUDENTS TO DEMAND JOHN STUMPF:
1. Modify Wells Fargo loans to reduce student and household debt;
2. Support $2 billion each year for our CA schools by getting Chevron to withdraw opposition to the Oil Extraction Tax.

Participating organizations:
