2Lakewood, NJ – Senator Robert Singer has introduced a resolution urging Governor Murphy to enroll the state in the Federal Tax Credit Scholarship Program. This initiative aims to alleviate tax burdens on families in New Jersey and improve educational opportunities for students.
The proposed program would enable a federal tax credit of up to $1,700 for contributions made to recognized scholarship organizations. These organizations would be mandated to provide scholarships for elementary and secondary education expenses.
Under this program, states hold the discretion to recognize granting organizations. The governor must determine whether the state will participate in the initiative.
