“I strongly believe that by having the state of Illinois opt in to the proposed Federal Tax Credit Scholarship, we can serve all students, public, private and homeschooled,” said Angel Gutierrez, Chicago Board of Education Member.
Supporting students and expanding opportunity helps strengthen communities and create brighter futures for families across the country. For states like Illinois, it starts with the Governor opting in. investineducation.org/

Families across Illinois and nationwide want greater access to educational opportunities that help students thrive and succeed, as Bobby Sylvester has seen from his work at @theurban_center:
“This program provides the resources to unlock better opportunities for parents to get the best possible education for their children. We should be in the business of providing parents with more resources and support for their child’s education, not less.”
