Universal School Choice Act

The Universal School Choice Act (HR 3519) creates tax credits for individuals and corporations that contribute to scholarship granting organizations providing education scholarships. The bill establishes a $10 billion annual cap on these credits and defines "qualified" education expenses to include tuition, materials, tutoring, and other costs at public or private schools, including religious institutions. Scholarship granting organizations must meet requirements like income verification for low-income students and annual audits. The legislation prohibits government control over these organizations and ensures religious schools can participate without discrimination. This bill would directly affect taxpayers making education contributions, scholarship organizations, and students attending participating schools.
