the voices of undergraduates across campus. It’s made up of elected senators from each college, along with executive officers who help organize and support student-led efforts. The Senate meets every week to review and vote on legislation, distribute funding to student organizations, and talk through issues that impact the wider campus community. Meetings are led by the Executive Vice President and follow a structured format to keep things fair, open, and inclusive. Overall, the Senate plays a vital role in making sure student voices are heard and in improving student life at UCR.</span></p></td></tr></tbody></table></td></tr></tbody></table><!--[if mso]></td><![endif]--><!--[if !mso]><!--></td><!--<![endif]--><td class="gmail-hXAYtc" style="min-width:12px"></td></tr></tbody></table></td></tr></tbody></table><table role="presentation" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0" width="100%" class="gmail-yaqOZd" style="background-color:rgb(255,255,255);background-size:cover;display:table;table-layout:fixed;width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:0px"><tbody><tr><td width="100%"><table width="100%" style="margin:auto;max-width:800px;min-width:320px;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:0px" align="center"><tbody><tr><td class="gmail-hXAYtc" style="min-width:12px"></td><!--[if !mso]><!--><td data-gmail-template-mso="group-cell" width="100%" style="padding:9px 0px" class="gmail-fHaL6b"><!--<![endif]--><!--[if mso]><td width="100%"><table width="100%" style="vertical-align:top;"><![endif]--><!--[if !mso]><!--><table data-gmail-template-mso="group-table-open" width="100%" style="vertical-align:top;display:inline-table;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:0px" class="gmail-hJDwNd-AhqUyc-uQSCkd gmail-Ft7HRd-AhqUyc-uQSCkd gmail-purZT-AhqUyc-II5mzb gmail-ZcASvf-AhqUyc-II5mzb gmail-pSzOP-AhqUyc-qWD73c gmail-Ktthjf-AhqUyc-qWD73c gmail-sqhfed"><!--<![endif]--><tbody><tr><td width="100%" style="padding-left:9px;padding-right:9px;display:table-cell" class="gmail-OjCsFc gmail-dmUFtb gmail-wHaque gmail-g5GTcb"><table class="gmail-baZpAe" cellpadding="7px" width="100%" style="border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:0px"><tbody><tr><td width="100%" align="center" style="word-break:break-word"><p dir="ltr" class="gmail-zfr3Q gmail-CDt4Ke" style="margin:0px 0pt;padding-bottom:0px;padding-top:0px;font-family:Arial;font-weight:400;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;vertical-align:baseline;text-decoration:none;display:block;line-height:1.2;text-align:left;padding-left:0pt;text-indent:0pt;font-size:12pt;color:rgb(28,28,28);outline:none"><span class="gmail-C9DxTc" style="color:rgb(0,61,165);font-family:Arial;font-variant:normal;font-weight:700">Senate </span><span class="gmail-C9DxTc" style="color:rgb(0,61,165);font-family:Arial;font-variant:normal;font-weight:700">Highlight: Legislation Tracker</span></p></td></tr></tbody></table></td></tr></tbody></table><!--[if mso]></td><![endif]--><!--[if !mso]><!--></td><!--<![endif]--><td class="gmail-hXAYtc" style="min-width:12px"></td></tr></tbody></table></td></tr></tbody></table><table role="presentation" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0" width="100%" class="gmail-yaqOZd" style="background-color:rgb(255,255,255);background-size:cover;display:table;table-layout:fixed;width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:0px"><tbody><tr><td width="100%"><table width="100%" style="margin:auto;max-width:800px;min-width:320px;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:0px" align="center"><tbody><tr><td class="gmail-hXAYtc" style="min-width:12px"></td><!--[if !mso]><!--><td data-gmail-template-mso="group-cell" width="100%" style="padding:9px 0px" class="gmail-fHaL6b"><!--<![endif]--><!--[if mso]><td width="100%"><table width="100%" style="vertical-align:top;"><![endif]--><!--[if !mso]><!--><table data-gmail-template-mso="group-table-open" width="100%" style="vertical-align:top;display:inline-table;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:0px" class="gmail-hJDwNd-AhqUyc-uQSCkd gmail-Ft7HRd-AhqUyc-uQSCkd gmail-purZT-AhqUyc-II5mzb gmail-ZcASvf-AhqUyc-II5mzb gmail-pSzOP-AhqUyc-qWD73c gmail-Ktthjf-AhqUyc-qWD73c gmail-sqhfed"><!--<![endif]--><tbody><tr><td width="100%" style="padding-left:9px;padding-right:9px;display:table-cell" class="gmail-OjCsFc gmail-dmUFtb gmail-wHaque gmail-g5GTcb"><table class="gmail-baZpAe" cellpadding="7px" width="100%" style="border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:0px"><tbody><tr><td width="100%" align="center" style="word-break:break-word"><p dir="ltr" class="gmail-zfr3Q gmail-CDt4Ke" style="margin:0px 0pt;padding-bottom:0px;padding-top:0px;font-family:Arial;font-weight:400;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;vertical-align:baseline;text-decoration:none;display:block;line-height:1.2;text-align:left;padding-left:0pt;text-indent:0pt;font-size:12pt;color:rgb(28,28,28);outline:none"><span class="gmail-C9DxTc" style="color:rgb(69,90,100);font-size:11pt;vertical-align:baseline">The ASUCR Senate reviews and advances student-led legislation throughout the year.
