San Bernardino, CA - In case you missed it, U.S. Senator Adam Schiff (D-Calif.) attended a student roundtable at San Bernardino Valley College, where students from local colleges shared the main issues at the forefront of their minds. During the roundtable, Schiff discussed ongoing efforts in Congress to bring down the cost of living and what he's doing to support students and educators amid federal funding cuts from the Trump administration.
Schiff also highlighted that he secured more than $254 million in federal funding for California for the 2026 fiscal year, including more than $1 million for CSU San Bernardino's establishment of an AI and Virtual Reality Research and Retraining Center that will support technology acquisition, facility upgrades, and the creation of an AI retraining platform, among other projects for the Inland Empire.
Attendees at the roundtable included students from San Bernardino Valley College, Crafton Hills Community College, Cal State San Bernardino, and UC Riverside.
