What happened
Kathy Hochul is reviewing federal rules regarding participation in the new Federal Scholarship Tax Credit. The credit, which was passed under the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, is set to begin on January 1, 2027. New York is not currently listed among the 30 states participating in the credit, and the Treasury Department expects proposed regulations by the end of September.

Why it matters
The tax credit could provide educational support for New York families, potentially covering costs for tutoring, special needs services, books, or educational technology. The proposed regulations are expected to clarify how scholarship organizations operate and how benefits such as tutoring will function.
Kathy Hochul's state and another state are participating in the tax credit program.
