Giving Education a lift in the form of tax credit Timothy P. Mulhearn is president of United New Yorkers for Choice in Education, based in Hempstead. September 18, 2007 Please call the NYS Legislature to support the Educational Tax Incentives Act! The NYS legislature will return for a special session at the end of this month or in October. This bill (S.3627-A/A.6432-A) would encourage public donations to public and private schools by granting partial tax credits for the donation. It would also grant tax credits to teachers (and parents who home school their children) for the purchase of classroom supplies and other material. For more information, click the link below. Call your legislator toll free at 1-800-525-2846.
