Dear colleagues,
As you may know, His
Eminence Timothy Cardinal Dolan has made passage of the Education Tax Credit
(ETC) the Archdiocese’s top legislative priority. The ETC is a bill being
considered by lawmakers in Albany that would increase scholarships for
nonpublic school children; provide tax credits to tuition-paying families; help
teachers with out-of-pocket classroom expenses; and increase funding for
programming in public schools.
The ETC is of critical
importance to our Catholic school system and can help more children receive the
faith-based education that we provide. I am asking for your support in getting
this legislation passed into law. Please visit www.nyscatholic.org to
connect directly with your elected officials and urge them to pass the
Education Tax Credit before the end of the legislative session. Please do
not delay, there are only a few days left!
Thank you for your
support.
Sincerely,
Timothy J. McNiff, Ed.D.
Superintendent of
Schools
