    Dear President Pollack,
     
    It is my pleasure to convey Resolution 5: Approving the GPSA Internal Budget for the 2020-2021 Term. This budget follows several weeks of discussion on the proper  allocations for our activities in light of the ongoing pandemic. Due to the possibility of certain in-person activities in the spring, several committees have ultimately requested to retain their prior allocations, such that we may be prepared for activities depending upon the course of re-activation. Furthermore, we will continue to allocate funds toward student technological needs during the pandemic. The exact total of this allocation will likely change once we determine the degree to which the Access Fund is able to meet students’ current needs. We’re expecting to receive any relevant data by the end of this week. 
     
    I would like to recognize our Appropriations Committee chairperson Aakarsha Pandey for her work on this resolution.
     
    Please do not hesitate to contact me should you have questions or concerns.
     
    Respectfully Submitted,
