That’s actually pretty awesome and cool for low income parents.
I have mixed feelings. I think certainly there's some merit to it but...we're talking the lowest class gets 16% matching funds if less than $35K a year AGI.
I get 2% because my AGI is > $175K.

One reason to consider a 529 over a UTMA is the recent change in the law that allows a portion (believe it's up to $30k) to be rolled into a roth IRA for the child

I am assuming you can fund both the 529 and UTMA right?

Someone making $35k a year and still putting their kids first is awesome. 16% to 2% is a huge gap, though.

It's 14% to 2%. Here's how it is broken down: LINK
To the person that asked, you can absolutely have a UTMA as well if you'd like.
