Summary by the , the Legislature's nonpartisan drafting office. It's their wording, not ours.

The bill defines CPI as the consumer price index for all urban consumers, U.S. city average, as determined by the U.S. Department of Labor. Also, for purposes of the bill, “resident undergraduate tuition” is defined to include any differential tuition and mandatory fees charged to a resident undergraduate student.
