Illinois House Resolution 427 urges Governor JB Pritzker to adopt the Educational Choice for Children Act.

Illinois House Resolution 427 encourages Governor JB Pritzker to opt Illinois into the Educational Choice for Children Act. This act, part of the One Big Beautiful Bill, provides a federal tax credit of up to $1,700 for donations to Scholarship Granting Organizations. These organizations assist families in paying for their children's K-12 education at public, private, or home schools, covering expenses like fees, tutoring, and transportation. Currently, 35 states have similar programs, but Illinois' Invest in Kids Act expired in 2023.
