A resolution to propose to the people of the State of California an amendment to the Constitution of the State, by amending Section 9 of Article IX thereof, relating to the University of California.

Existing provisions of the California Constitution provide that the University of California constitutes a public trust, and require that the university be administered by the Regents of the University of California, a corporation in the form of a board, with full powers of organization and government, subject to legislative control only for specified purposes. These provisions grant the regents all the powers necessary or convenient for the effective administration of its trust. This measure would prohibit the regents from increasing the total amount of tuition and mandatory systemwide fees charged to students of the university above those in effect as of June 15, 2021, until the 2027–28 academic year. Commencing with the 2027–28 academic year, the measure would require any increase in the total amount of tuition and mandatory systemwide fees charged to students for an upcoming academic year to be approved by the regents before June 15 preceding the academic year to which the increase would apply.
