Patrick Moynlhan (D-N.Y.), Joined by 41 cosponsors, Introduced
legislation to give tax credits
to almost every American who
has to pay education tuition.
In a proposal they termed "a
revolutionary concept In self-

"We are facing an education

become so alarming that some

school, a vocational school, a
college or university.
Senator Moynlhan said this legislation would provide "a sorely-
needed financial boost to parents
now burdened with heavy educational costs," and would widen
the range of school and college
opportunities.
"A carefully designed tax credit is a direct and efficient form
of financial aid to those who-pay
tuition, particularly to those at
tending private schools and colleges that are forced by their
lack of state subsidies to charge
higher tuition than their public
counterparts," he said.
He said he knew that tuition
relief "Is not yet a universally
accepted Idea," but pointed out
that for centuries aid to nonpublic schools was a familiar
and widely accepted element of
nubile policies.
