PIERRE — A proposal to give tax credits to people with children in private schools has flunked out.

Rep. Don Kopp, R-Rapid City, pulled HB 1173. There wasn’t support within the House Taxation Committee, whose members killed the bill Tuesday at Kopp’s request.

He wanted property owners to receive a credit on their property taxes for their K-12 education costs if their children are enrolled in a nonpublic school.
