Issue Position

Students should be able to receive all the education for which they are willing to work. I secured approval of a $14 billion "more education" tax cut so families spending $2,500 for tuition, textbooks and course materials can have $2,500 taken off their federal tax bill. I also passed legislation to simplify financial aid forms, an idea suggested to me by the Austin Chamber of Commerce, so that more families could take advantage of existing help.
