Dear John,
Last month we have asked you to contact your Members of Congress in support of Catholic schools – and thanks to you, almost 100,000 messages were delivered nationwide!
We now have a newly introduced emergency school choice bill: The School Choice Now Act. We need your help one more time.
COVID-19 has contributed to the permanent closure of 138 Catholic schools across 23 states. Additionally, internal surveys show ten percent of Catholic schools are now uncertain if they can open their doors this fall. That means as many as 500 or more Catholic schools could be in jeopardy.
Please ask our U.S. Senators to include additional relief for Catholic schools in the emergency relief package currently being negotiated.
As the Senate prepares its next COVID relief bill, please ask that it include immediate assistance to families through federally-funded scholarships.
The Alexander-Scott “School Choice Now Act” provides one-time, emergency funding for scholarship-granting organizations in each state and provides permanent dollar-for-dollar federal tax credits for contributions to scholarship granting organizations.
Catholic schools urgently need help in this time of uncertainty. Please contact your Senators today!
