On Wednesday, the House K-12 Education Budget Committee will hold a hearing on expanding the tax credit scholarship program. This program is a “neovoucher” in that it functions as a voucher but is structured as a “scholarship” to avoid being deemed unconstitutional when the funding goes to religious schools. This hearing was originally scheduled for last Friday but was postponed until Wednesday. At this point we aren’t expecting this bill to pass out of committee. Here is Game On’s written testimony.
