New York Governor Kathy Hochul plans to opt into President Donald Trump's federal tax credit school choice program, which begins in 2027. This program allows individuals to redirect up to $1,700 of their federal tax bill to nonprofits that provide scholarships for qualified educational expenses. Hochul's decision makes New York the largest Democratic-led state to participate, a move lauded by proponents as a potential turning point for the program.
