Pennsylvania Senate Proposes $8,000 Education Tax Credit

The plan would allow families to offset private school and homeschooling costs, facing opposition from the governor and House Democrats.

  • The Child Learning Investment Tax Credit offers up to $8,000 per student for educational expenses.
  • The proposal diverges from last year's $100 million school voucher plan rejected by House Democrats.
  • Governor Shapiro opposes the new tax credit bill, which is set for a Senate Finance Committee vote.
  • Critics argue the bill could divert significant funds from public schools and cost over $2 billion annually.
  • Supporters claim the tax credit empowers parental choice in education.
