Hochul breaks with teachers unions over education tax credit
Original: Hochul breaks with teachers unions to embrace GOP-backed education tax credit
New York Governor Kathy Hochul is backing an education tax credit favored by Republicans, breaking with the teachers unions that are key allies of her Democratic Party. The move puts her at odds with union leaders who argue such credits divert public money toward private schools. The proposal is expected to be a flashpoint in state budget negotiations, with education funding a central fight in Albany this session.
Why now: A sitting Democratic governor siding with a GOP-backed school policy against allied unions is an unusual and politically charged split.
