Act Now to Protect
Public Education

Oppose the Educational Choice for Children Act – Protect Public Education and Ensure Fair Access for All Students!

The Educational Choice for Children Act (HR 817, HR 833, S. 292) is a proposal that would send $100 billion in taxpayer money to private schools and families who homeschool. This proposal is fiscally irresponsible, enables student discrimination, undermines local control of education, and would severely damage public schools that educate 90% of American children.

This bill passed the Ways and Means Committee in the House of Representatives in September 2024, with votes on party lines, and is expected to be a top priority for House Republicans in the 2025 budget reconciliation.
