Arizona and Florida have the strongest education tax-credit scholarship programs in the country while Alabama’s law is the weakest according to a ranking released today by the Center for Education Reform, a school choice advocacy and research group.
The Bethesda, Md.-based CER assigned letter grades to the 14 states that have enacted education tax-credit laws, which allow businesses or individuals to claim tax-credits for donations made to approved scholarship organizations, grading them based primarily on how well funded each program is and how many students they serve.
