Action Alert: https://lnkd.in/gaJPVSGB The Child Tax Credit is critical for families and research shows that when families have more money in their pockets, children have better outcomes. If you agree that this is needed, you can easily let Congress know if you want their support in passing proposed legislation - being voted on?today or sometime this week! House and Senate negotiators released a?tax proposal?that would?improve the Child Tax Credit for?about 80%?of families with low incomes who now do not receive the full credit, and lift an estimated 400,000 children above the poverty line. This bill could be on the House floor for a vote as soon as next week, with Senate consideration shortly after. While this proposal wouldn’t go as far as the last time Congress expanded the CTC in 2021 as a part of President Biden’s?American Rescue Plan, it is a step towards fixing deficiencies in the current CTC, which provides higher benefits to families earning?$400,000?per year than to families earning?$15,000. This new version of the expanded Child Tax Credit is not perfect―still leaving out families with no earnings―but?it is our best opportunity to address child poverty at a time when the right-wing is attempting to cut critical programs from nutrition assistance to housing assistance.
