On Tax Day, various politicians emphasize the importance of extending and expanding the Child Tax Credit (CTC) to reduce childhood poverty. Democrats urge Congress to reauthorize the CTC, highlighting its positive impact on families and children. The House has passed bipartisan legislation to expand the CTC, aiming to lower taxes and provide stability for middle-class families. The CTC has already lifted millions of children out of poverty and reduced health insurance premiums for Americans.
In 2021, Democrats expanded the Child Tax Credit and cut child poverty nearly in half. But Republicans let it expire. President Biden's budget would put working families first by restoring the expanded Child Tax Credit.
The Child Tax Credit lifted 3 million children out of poverty, cut taxes for working families, and made permanent the expanded ACA premium tax credits that lowered health insurance premiums for millions of Americans. We should reauthorize it. https://t.co/Cdh2FtIbL2
The House passed bipartisan legislation recently that would lower taxes by expanding the Child Tax Credit. The Senate needs to quickly pass the measure to give middle-class families the stability they deserve. πor π if you agree.
No better time than Tax Day to remind everybody that Senate Republicans are blocking expansion of the Child Tax Credit, which would help lift half a million children out of poverty.
On Tax Day, @POTUS and I continue to call on Republicans in Congress to extend the Child Tax Credit. Our plan would lower taxes for families and lift millions of children out of poverty. We'll never stop fighting to provide every child in our nation the opportunity to thrive.
This Tax Day, families are without the expanded Child Tax Credit, which was proven to halve childhood poverty. The CTC is more than a number on a tax form, it's a way we can have a real impact on our children's future. The CTC works. Congress must reauthorize the expanded CTC. https://t.co/qVNxXNJohU
