📚 @governorshapiro, why let Pennsylvania miss out on up to $500 million in education funding when it won’t cost the state a dime? Opt in and put students first!

Today, the Commonwealth Foundation’s Chief Policy Officer, @NathanBenefield, testified before the U.S. House Committee on Education and the Workforce in Bethlehem, PA. His testimony focused on Pennsylvania’s education landscape and how exciting new programs, such as the federal scholarship tax credit, will bring life-changing options to our students. Thank you to the Committee for having us. We’re honored to advocate for expanded educational opportunities for Pennsylvania families on the national stage!

Pennsylvania ranks 1st in Medicaid fraud convictions and 3rd in charges nationwide. Annual audits, real-time data, and eligibility checks can help stop fraud BEFORE taxpayers lose money.

Socialism promises a lot, but at what cost? Free markets empower people to innovate, compete, and build a better future. Economic freedom means individual freedom. 🗽
