Posts - Bill - S 1610 Tax-Free Pell Grant Act

senate 05/06/2025 - 119th Congress

We are working to ensure that Pell Grants are fully excluded from taxable income, so students can receive their financial aid without facing extra tax burdens. This change aims to make college more affordable by clarifying that Pell Grants used for tuition and related expenses won’t increase a student’s tax bill.

More tax breaks? How about we start by trimming government spending instead of rewarding handouts.
