“Every child in America should have access to a great education.”Invest In Education Foundation
Peter Murphy and the group he represents called Invest In Education believes that school choice is something that is beneficial to all children.The Educational Choice for Children Act (ECCA), a federal piece of legislation he is working hard to advance, is a $10 billion scholarship tax credit to expand educational freedom and opportunity for up to two million students throughout the nation. Under the bill, individuals and businesses contribute to non-profit scholarship granting organizations who make scholarship awards for tuition, tutoring to address learning loss, special needs services, and education technology among other uses. Scholarships are funded with private donations, not federal money, and donors receive a federal tax credit. The ECCA respects federalism, protects religious liberty, and ensures private school autonomy.I am honored to chat with Peter today on the show.As always, if you can’t tune in live on radio, be sure to go wherever you get your podcasts and listen at your convenience.Thanks for your interest in “I’m Glad You Said That” and to John & Sandy Powers for their generous sponsorship of the show.
