Operation Restore (EITC)
posted on Apr 19, 2010
The Educational Improvement Tax Credit (EITC) program is targeted for Budget cuts – contact your legislator!
The EITC program is targeted for a $10M cut on top of last year’s $15M reduction. This could effect over 160 families at MVHS that received tuition assistance through EITC.
Please contact your PA State Representative and Senator TODAY and let them know that EITC funding should be restored!
For more information on how to contact your legislator and about the EITC program visit www.operationrestorepa.org
