Republican Senator Roger Chamberlain is making a bi-partisan appeal to help the estimated 135,000 dyslexic children in Minnesota, which would temporarily issue $19.1 million in tax credits to their families. In this video, he asks for help in adding Senate file 271 back into the HF 848-Omnibus Tax Bill.
Chamberlain notes that, because many of these children incorrectly view themselves as “stupid” and incapable of success, those who read in the bottom 25% are two times more likely to drop out of school and be in jail before 21, and girls are more likely to become pregnant. As such, these children need support by improving the school system to cater to the specific needs of dyslexic learners.

Get your free personalized learning roadmap
You describe what you see at home. We turn it into a plan you start this week.
- Answer 5 short questionnaires about what you already notice, 30–45 minutes at your own kitchen table
- Your child sits no test and gets no score: nothing to schedule, nothing for them to dread
- You do the answering, the AI does the writing, and a person reviews it before it reaches you
- Access all 40+ courses instantly: reading, math, focus, processing and more, with new ones added regularly
Why we use AI, plainly: it writes from a knowledge base our team maintains and audits. We work through it line by line and pull anything the evidence stops supporting. The roadmap you get on Tuesday reflects what we corrected on Monday, and a human still reads it before you do.
Your school district must evaluate your child free of charge if you ask in writing, whatever your income and whatever the outcome (US, 34 CFR 300.111 and 300.301(b)). That route takes time and answers a different question than you do. This one starts today, from what you already know.
Your answers stay yours. We do not sell your personal information, and we do not hand identifiable assessment data to outside AI companies to train their models.
A screener is a starting point, not a diagnosis. If your child might need formal accommodations (an IEP or 504 plan), or you suspect a vision, hearing or medical cause, pursue a professional evaluation too. That is the only route to those supports.
