PAGE 10—The Georgia Bulletin, August 2,1984 Ferraro Opposes Tuition Tax Credits WASHINGTON (NC) - Rep. Geraldine Ferraro, D-N.Y., the Democratic vice presidential candidate, said she will join running mate Walter F. Mondale in opposing tuition tax credits, in spite of her previous support for the legislation. “Fritz Mondale and I disagree on the issue of tuition tax credits. But as his vice president, I will support whatever position he takes on that particular issue. It is his judgment that that is not the direction to go, and I would support his position,” she said July 26. Father Thomas G. Gallagher, U.S. Catholic Conference secretary for education, said July 27 that Ms. Ferraro’s change in his position on tuition tax credits will help preserve “the hellish cycle of poverty for those who see no way out of it except through the education they choose for themselves and for their children.” He said Ms. Ferraro’s previous support for tax credits had offered “a beacon of hope” in the Democratic Party. Ms. Ferraro had been a co-sponsor of a tuition tax credit bill in the House. Legislation to give tax credits to parents who send their children to non-public schools has been introduced often in the House and Senate but has seldom moved beyond the committee stage. Last November it was tabled by the Senate, 59-38. Father Gallagher said studies show the people who would benefit from tuition tax credits “are not among the financially elite of our society.” Rather, he said, beneficiaries of tuition tax credits “are found at the core of the middle class” and among minorities in the nation’s nner cities.
