House Republicans are advancing the Educational Choice for Children Act (ECCA), a proposal that would offer federal tax credits to individuals and businesses donating to organizations providing K–12 scholarships for private and religious schools. Supporters, like Rep. Elise Stefanik, argue this measure would expand educational opportunities for students in underserved communities . Critics, however, contend it could divert funds from public schools and primarily benefit wealthier families through tax advantages.
