State Representative Adam Niemerg (R-Dieterich) took to the House floor to promote the Invest in Kids Scholarship program. The state of Illinois enacted the Invest In Kids Scholarship Tax Credit Program back in 2017.

This program offers a 75 percent income tax credit to individuals and businesses that contribute to qualified Scholarship Granting Organizations (SGOs). The SGOs then provide scholarships for students whose families meet the income requirements to attend qualified, non-public schools and technical academies in Illinois.

Niemerg said the program is a shared interest of both sides of the political aisle.
