Please send a ‘thank you’ to your local lawmaker in the House and\or Senate for making this important vote.

As a reminder, the bill provides for a $10 million increase for the expansion of the Educational Improvement Tax Credit (EITC) program. This vital program allows for more scholarships for students to attend the school that is best for them.

Good news: The Park Service denied a permit to the “Catharsis on the Mall” event to place a 45-foot naked female statue called “R-Evolution” on the National Mall, in Washington DC.

Bad news: The same event now seeks to install a large structure that would display a 26-foot composite digital photo of a naked woman, front and back. A permit application is under review at this very moment.

The two-story structure would display the nude female image on two sides of a scaffold-screen during the three-day event Nov. 10-12. Plus, media reports say women at the festival can take nude photos of themselves inside a booth that would then be worked into the composite digital photo shown on this giant screen.

Please sign the petition to the Park Service, urging them to deny these nude displays on the Mall

Finally, the event organizers have NOT given up on placing the giant 45-foot “R-Evolution” nude female statue on the Mall.

They are pushing to get it on public display by January 21, 2018, the first anniversary of the Woman’s March, which is just 2 days after the annual March for Life! This means that if the permit is granted, a giant female statue may be on display as hundreds of thousands of pro-lifers gather in Washington DC on January 19th .

This would be awful! Countless families would be exposed to the immorality that these activists are trying to impose on society.

We must legally and peacefully reject nudism!

Sign our petition, urging the National Park Service in DC to deny permits for the nude display and the “R-Evolution” statue

Tax-Saving Education Program Expanded to Help an Additional 3,000 Families

Good news from Harrisburg! State lawmakers have approved an expansion of a successful education program that is expected to help more than 3,000 additional families find the best education for their children, while saving taxpayers money. 

Each year, the Educational Improvement Tax Credit (EITC) program helps over 40,000 families with scholarship assistance that permits parents to send their children to the school that best meets their needs.

The PA General Assembly, as part of the state budget package, passed a $10 million expansion of the successfully-proven EITC program (8% increase), which is estimated to serve 3,200 additional families. Governor Wolf recently announced he will allow this expansion to become law (without his signature).

Pennsylvania Family Institute is one of the 196 approved organizations that distribute scholarships through the EITC program, providing 4,000 scholarships to Pennsylvania families. And every year we hear from parents their appreciation for this program and how their child’s education would not be possible without the financial scholarship. It’s a great program and great to see it will help more families in Pennsylvania.

Thanks for your partnership with us in our scholarship program and in advocating for school choice options in Pennsylvania.

And remember – it’s Election Day tomorrow (Tuesday, November 7th). We have our Voter’s Guide up for you to read through and share with friends and family: PaFamilyVoter.com.

Sincerely,

Tom Shaheen, Vice President for Policy
