Tax Credit Scholarship Expansion Opposition Testimony

Game On for Kansas Schools submitted testimony in opposition to House Bill 2465. This bill would amend and expand the current tax credit scholarship program to include ALL students (not just those in the attendance area of the lowest-performing elementary schools) as long as they are eligible for free OR reduced lunch.

Tax credit scholarships are vouchers with Scholarship Granting Organizations (SGOs) in the middle to avoid the direct funding of religious schools. Game On opposes voucher programs and we oppose this expansion which diverts public dollars to private, religious schools that are not held to the same transparency and inclusion standards as our public schools.
