U.S. Senate Sets the Stage to Transform American Education

Erika Donalds,  June 18, 2025

Washington D.C.— The America First Policy Institute (AFPI) released the following statement from Erika Donalds, Chair for Education Opportunity and AFPI’s Florida chapter:

“The Senate has taken a major step toward transforming American education. Their version of the Big Beautiful Bill includes permanent tax credit scholarships—the most significant federal commitment to school choice in our nation’s history.

We are not across the finish line yet, but this is a powerful signal. With the House already advancing key reforms, and now the Senate delivering bold language, we’re on the verge of something extraordinary.

We want to thank our champions in both chambers—and recognize President Donald J. Trump, whose leadership has rightly earned him the title of School Choice President.

When this policy makes it across the line, we won’t just be expanding opportunity—we’ll be entering the Golden Age of American education, where families lead, and children thrive.

Let’s get it done!”
