And the demonrats gag, choke, spew, hiss, fart, faint and fall over.

And female DemonRAT protesters rip off their tops in the House Gallery!

Glad it passed, but disappointed for homeschoolers.

My family has been home schooling since 2001. We've paid property taxes to support the local public schools for all that time, with zero benefit to ourselves.

I know it wasn't part of this bill, but I would loved to have had a federal tax deduction for all that money we've paid for so long.

Homeschooled for some 15 years. A decent private school curriculum never cost more than a couple hundred a year per kid. But still, I agree that there should be credits for homeschooling families whose kids can either pass standardized tests or have special needs that are according to professionals being addressed. If your kid is doing as well as his peers at public school (or better!), you should get something for that.

Aww... pretty kitty!

I agree. The Tax Bill is our 2017 Christmas present. Hopefully The Wall will be 2018's Christmas present. ;-)

Yep, it doesn’t take a lot to please them when they know they’re going to lose. I love it!

” a “mad dash to provide tax breaks for their billionaire campaign contributors” had ran afoul of the chamber’s rules. “

yeah all those billionaire home schooling families.

Is that not the most awesome cat picture you’ve ever seen, or what?

I loved that whole series of photos yesterday. Just incredible.

It was part of the bill the House voted on this morning (529’s for K-12, including home school), but removed by the Senate this afternoon, hence the re-vote tomorrow. Really, private/home school costs should be deducted from state/local taxes, not Fed.
