Senate Bill one-twenty-six will be heard on Tuesday morning in the Tax and Fiscal Policy
Committee. I’m very excited about this. It’s a small bill but it will, I think,
help our public schools enormously. Of course, in Monroe County, we have a school corporation
foundation that raises money for extracurricular activities and to supplement the special projects
for the schools, and this bill would allow for a tax credit for contributors. It’s
a limited tax credit, but a tax credit never-the-less that will, we hope encourage more contributions
to not only our foundation but the seventy foundations around the state to help support
public education.
