(LAPORTE, IN) -- Under a new expansion passed by the Indiana House of Representatives, families making double the state’s median income would now be eligible for education vouchers. The bill would mean increasing income eligibility for school choice vouchers and creating a new funding program for some students not enrolled in public schools to receive state tuition support dollars to pay for education costs, which could help students who are homeschooled to receive public tax money. Read the bill here.

 

We also introduced a segment called LEGISLATORS IN ACTION: tracking the votes and work of our State Senators and State Representatives.
