PHOENIX (KYMA) – Tom Horne, Superintendent of Public Instruction, is urging state lawmakers to approve a legislation for the current school safety program.

According to a press release, Gov. Katie Hobbs (D-Ariz.) vetoed a legislation that would give parents access to a federal school tax credit.

Superintendent Horne said, “I am disappointed that this legislation was vetoed. It benefits the state at federal expense and helps all schools, whether public or private.”

Those eligible would have received a tax credit of up to $1,700 with contributions to certain scholarship granting organizations.
