AFC Celebrates School Choice Tax Credit Signed into Law
The American Federation for Children celebrates the signing of the nation’s first-ever federal school choice tax credit in the reconciliation bill.
Statement from Tommy Schultz, CEO, American Federation for Children:
“Every state will have school choice soon. For a generation, our movement has fought to give all families, especially lower-income families, the freedom to choose the best K-12 education for their sons and daughters, and now President Trump has signed into law the single biggest advancement of that goal.
For far too long, the schooling unions and their allies have stood in the schoolhouse door blocking equal access to school choice. Their time of dominating America’s education system is over. This historic tax credit will supercharge school choice across America. We applaud President Donald Trump and champions in Congress for ensuring this generational expansion of educational freedom was a priority during the reconciliation process.
AFC will work to ensure that governors and state leaders listen to their constituents and bring educational freedom to every state in the nation, and to as many families as possible. We will continue to fight to ensure that this tax credit scholarship is well-implemented and expanded as soon as possible.”
