AB 106
Increased income tax deduction for college
Full Description
(Wood) Expands the individual income tax deduction for college tuition expenses.

UW System Position
SUPPORT: The exemption would encourage more savings for higher education. In tight fiscal times, the value of this tax credit approach must be weighed against direct appropriation of state grant funds for low income students.
