What’s in it

AI summary Iowa would end the tax credit for people and businesses that donate money to school tuition organizations. Starting in July 2026, taxpayers can no longer use these donations to lower the amount of income tax they owe. This change also reduces the total amount of these tax credits available during the year 2026.1

Read the official explanation

This bill repeals the school tuition organization (STO) tax credit available against the individual and corporate income taxes. DIVISION I. Under the bill, a contribution made by a taxpayer to an STO on or after July 1, 2026, shall not be used by the taxpayer as a tax credit to reduce the individual or corporate income tax. The bill prohibits an STO from issuing tax credit certificates for contributions made to the STO on or after July 1, 2026. The bill reduces the total amount of approved STO tax credits that may be issued in calendar year 2026 from $20 million to $10 million due to the repeal occurring at the midpoint of the calendar year. The bill strikes the credit occurring each calendar year after calendar year 2026.11S(3). DIVISION II.11S on the date that the Code section is repealed. This division takes effect on July 1, 2032.
