A proposed federal scholarship tax credit program is being discussed as a potential way to expand educational opportunities for students in rural areas of Illinois. Supporters say the initiative could help families access more schooling options that might otherwise be unavailable due to geographic or financial limitations.

"Federal scholarship could help rural Illinois students find education options," according to information released about the program.

Travis Weaver, a Republican who was elected to the Illinois State House in 2023, represents the state's 93rd House District. He succeeded Norine Hammond in this role.
