Inside Higher Ed: Seeking to offer an alternative vision to that of President Trump and congressional Republicans, Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders and Democratic colleagues on Monday unveiled new legislation Monday to make public colleges and universities tuition-free.
Competing free-college plans offered by Sanders and Hillary Clinton were central to the Democratic presidential primary last year.

Both proposals have no realistic chance of passing soon but could help energize the party's progressive supporters.
