Pass Education Savings And School Excellence Act Congressman Jim Nussle on Wednesday joined the House Ways and Means Committee in passing a bill that will strengthen public education, build and renovate public schools, and help students and families with the costs of education from Kindergarten to adulthood. The bill also makes it easier for local and community leaders to tackle school construction projects, and provides an incentive for medical students to locate in rural parts of the country.
Every child deserves the best education available.
And every parents should have the freedom to choose the best education opportunity for their children. And we parents deserve accountability from the teachers and schools that are educating our sons and daughters. This bill is a giant leap forward for families and for education. Both the contribution and earnings portion of distributions from qualified State tuition programs would be excluded from gross income. The bill also would allow corporations and other entities to make contributions to ESAs on behalf of students.
