Arizona Is at It Again: The Next Step Advancing Education Freedom

Washington, D.C.—Today, Erika Donalds, Chair of Education Opportunity at the America First Policy Institute (AFPI), issued the following statement about Arizona’s potential to expand more pathways for families to support educational options offered in House Bill 4037, which would establish a refundable tax credit for filers that do not have students within the public school system, and that do not have an Empowerment Scholarship Account:

“Arizona has led the way for years by providing innovative solutions for families as they seek the best possible education for their children. This legislation would give yet another pathway to empower parents to access models that best meet the needs of their students.

Arizona taxpayers deserve more control of how their hard-earned dollars are spent, and any opportunity that allows families to find value-aligned education is a win. The America First Policy Institute advocates for policies that put parents and their children’s best interests first.”
