Oh great so nobody of color can get a job without it being a race thing???

I think it's more influential that she's female.

We have this and now they want to award Pell grants to people in jail... What about a hard working person who is responsible who won't get a pell grant because the limited funds went to someone in prison?

I don't believe the Pell pilot program takes any money away from non-prisoners, it's a small pilot that's funded separately.

It could be a great idea by the way. Studies have shown that for every dollar of educational investment in prisons taxpayers save 5 in return.
