====================================================================== From the HSLDA E-lert Service... ====================================================================== Virginia--Calls Needed Now to Help Pass Tax Credit for Homeschoolers Dear HSLDA members and friends: We need your calls September 27-30 to the Virginia Senate during the upcoming special session. We urge you to call to support House Bill 1294, introduced by Delegate Christopher B. Saxman, to provide a tax credit to homeschool, private school, and public school students in the form of a scholarship for tuition, books, and educational fees. The bill will allow nonprofit 501(c)3 organizations to establish scholarships for any and all students. Anyone who gives to the 501(c)3 organization for a scholarship for the homeschooler can obtain a tax credit. The scholarships are available for any homeschooler whose parents make up to $90,000 annually. It is important that you contact senators on the Finance Committee September 27-30 while they are in a special session. It is our hope that the Senate Finance Committee will pass what the House of Delegates supported in this tax credit bill. ACTION Please call and give the following message to members of the finance committee: "We are parents of school-age children who need tax relief. Please support House Bill 1294 which will provide scholarships for tuition, books, and educational fees. We thank you for supporting this measure." Members of the Finance Committee: Chichester, John (R) (Chair) (540) 373-5600 Colgan, Charles (D) (703) 368-0300 Lambert, Benjamin (D) (804) 643-3534 Wampler, William (R) (276) 669-7515 Stosch, Walter (R) (804) 527-7780 Houck, Edward (D) (540) 786-2782 Hawkins, Charles (R) (434) 432-9672 Howell, Janet (D) (703) 709-8283 Saslaw, Richard (D) (703) 978-0200 Stolle, Kenneth (R) (757) 486-5700 Quayle, Frederick (R) (757) 483-9173 Norment, Thomas (R) (757) 259-7810 Potts, Russell (R) (540) 665-2092 Hanger, Emmett (R) (540) 885-6898 Watkins, John (R) (804) 379-2063 Your action will determine the success of this tax credit measure that will provide significant tax relief for homeschoolers.
