Tony Evers says he won't sign on to new federal school choice tax credits – Milwaukee Journal Sentinel

MADISON – Gov. Tony Evers says he won’t join a new federal program that would give tax credits to people who donate to organizations that award scholarships for students in private and public schools.
Evers, in an interview with the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, said doing so would be “catastrophic” for public schools.
The program provides tax credits worth the total amount of a donation to a scholarship-granting organization, up to $1,700. The organization keeps 10% of the donation and the rest must be awarded as a scholarship to pay for school expenses, including tutoring, technology, or tuition, among other expenses.
