College Help Tax Case Study

The bill I’m proposing would involve using Texas public funding to support two-year colleges and four-year universities through a 10% tax increase program each year called The College Help Tax. College tuition, today is up to $7,000 a semester and continues to raise every year. Through this tax program, it would be of assistance for all Texas residents to use to attend college.

Continuing in 2019 with a 20% tax, this would lower the cost of college tuition from $6,300 to $5,040, a $1,260 difference in 2020 with a 30% tax this would help to lower tuition to $3,528 dollars a semester a $3,472 decrease. Finally by, 2021 with a 40% decrease this would lower Texas tuition to $2,116.80 a $4,883.20 decrease.
