    With the Teacher Expense Deduction, out-of-pocket expenses for books, supplies, and computer equipment could earn teachers a tax deduction.

        Hey, here's an idea. How about schools fund the supplies! Teachers should't have 2 subsidize schools. Forget the wall. $ can go to education

        Would rather we properly fund schools so teachers have the supplies and support they need.

        Even better idea: Properly fund our schools.

        This is lame. These items should be requisitioned properly by paid employees and made readily available to teachers upon request

        Should be, but seldom are. Especially in poor districts, which have the greatest need.

        Just trying to compare what's being proposed to an alternative where teachers are actually trusted and supported in their efforts

        It would be amazing. I would LOVE to be able to do my job without worrying about classroom materials!

        At the very least it should be a 100% TAX CREDIT, not a deduction. Is there none of you daring to make a bold move?

        As a teacher, I respectfully disagree with this concept. Teachers shouldn't have to pay for these expenses in the first place.

        True. But... Teachers really should not have to be buying these things out-of-pocket, at all.😕

        As a teacher, I can say that when the school pays, each item is challenged/rejected as "unnecessary." The battle is never ending. 📚🆘👩🏻‍🏫👩🏾‍💻

        Or, alternately, actually fund education.
