    How would expanding 529 plans to cover K-12 expenses affect families who cannot afford to set aside savings for education?

  2. 02

    What evidence supports that tax-free 529 withdrawals for tutoring and educational therapy will improve student outcomes rather than primarily benefit higher-income families?

  3. 03

    If 529 plans cover more educational expenses, how might this shift costs between public schools, private institutions, and families?
