HR 2097 United States House · 119th Congress

Education, Achievement, and Opportunity Act

HR 2097 creates a new federal tax credit allowing parents to claim up to $10,000 annually per child for qualified elementary and secondary education expenses at public, private, parochial, or religious schools. It covers tuition, required fees, specific technology, tutoring, disability services, and transportation to private schools, but excludes uniforms, athletics, or nonacademic fees. The credit phases out for households earning above $75,000 (single) or $150,000 (joint). This directly affects families paying for K-12 education, expanding tax relief beyond current education benefits. The policy change takes effect for tax years after the bill’s enactment.
