Tell Congress: Families Need Monthly Child Checks!
Congress
Congress expanded the Child Tax Credit (CTC) in 2021, giving parents up to $300 a month per kid! These ‘Child Checks’ were a game-changer for millions of struggling families, cutting child poverty almost in HALF and helping families afford necessities like food and housing.
Sadly, Child Checks stopped in December 2021 after Congressional Republicans and Senator Joe Manchin refused to extend them. But President Biden included a reinstatement of this monthly tax credit in his budget for next year and Democrats are pushing to re-start this game-changer policy.
Millions of families are struggling to make ends meet and provide the best life possible for their kids. We have a policy we know works -- let's overwhelm Congress with massive public support for bringing back the expanded CTC without delay!
