Record date: February 20, 2026

Donald Trump promised to provide $10,000 per child tax-free to homeschoolers.

The commitment

Provide $10,000 per child tax-free to homeschoolers.

Published tracker status: Promise Kept

The tracker concluded that the promised outcome was substantially achieved.

PolitiFact’s update summarized the result this way: “Federal law expands 529 expenses to cover homeschool costs, raises withdrawal limit”

What would satisfy the promise?

The relevant test is the outcome described in the commitment—not merely an announcement, executive order, proposal or attempt. A final assessment should identify the action taken, whether it remained in force, who was affected and whether the promised result was delivered at the scale stated.

Why this belongs in the record

Campaign promises are forward-looking claims. Preserving the original commitment beside the later result makes it possible to distinguish action from completion and partial movement from the outcome voters were offered.
