Georgia's Senate has passed a $6,500 school voucher bill, allowing students to use the funds for private school tuition and homeschooling. Governor Brian Kemp has expressed support for the voucher plan, which prioritizes families with incomes under four times the federal poverty level. The bill now awaits Kemp's signature. The measure, which passed 33-21 along party lines, marks the end of a multi-year saga to create a third Georgia program funding nonpublic education options.
