Americans support the federal school choice scholarship, but will they use it?

As part of last summer’s One Big Beautiful Bill, Congress created a program that gives a $1,700 tax credit for donating to organizations that give scholarships to K-12 students.

Millions of taxpayers could benefit from this tax credit. Instead of giving $1,700 to the IRS, they could give it to a scholarship-granting organization. Millions of students could benefit as well, getting to attend private school or take advantage of other approved educational expenses supported by the tax credit, including tutoring, special education services, and enrichment programs.
