63. Yep: "Hillary Clinton Joins Gov. Cuomo to Sign Free College Tuition Bill Into Law"

LONG ISLAND CITY — Hillary Clinton joined Gov. Andrew Cuomo in Queens Wednesday to sign the state's new free college tuition bill into law — and the governor credited the former presidential candidate for inspiring the program, which will make CUNY and SUNY colleges tuition-free for qualifying students whose families earn $125,000 or less a year.

He credited the former secretary of state for first conceiving of the program — and said he got the idea after hearing Clinton propose free state college tuition while on the campaign trail last year.

"The inspiration for the idea came from a woman who I know very, very well, who I spent eight years with in Washington," Cuomo said.

The Excelsior Scholarship will be phased in over the next three years. Starting this fall, it will offer free tuition for qualifying SUNY or CUNY students whose families make up to $100,000 a year, with that amount increasing to $110,000 in 2018 and $125,000 in 2019.

"I cannot tell you adequately how thrilled I was when the governor, as you heard him say, took this idea and said, 'It’s going to happen in New York,'" Clinton said. "I hope it's the first of many states."
