The Federal Scholarship Tax Credit allows individual taxpayers to receive a tax credit of up to $1,700 annually for contributing to approved Scholarship Granting Organizations. This program requires Maryland to opt in to participate. Governor Wes Moore has not announced his decision regarding the state's enrollment. Dan Cox stated that he would opt in as governor, noting the credit would be helpful to Maryland students.
