Today, families in Colorado and nationwide are receiving another monthly payment thanks to Michael’s work to expand the Child Tax Credit. 

This payment marks the halfway point of the temporary expansion that expires in December. With just three months left, Michael’s work to extend this tax cut is more critical than ever. 

The temporarily expanded Child Tax Credit has helped one million Colorado children. We kept three million children nationwide out of poverty with the first round of payments alone. Here’s how it’s helping folks in our state:

“[The Child Tax Credit] helped my daughter pay for summer day camps for my two granddaughters.” 

— Barbara H, Denver

“I... don't have children but have a huge community of young families in my life who live at the edge of poverty. This CTC has been great for them. I hope it becomes permanent.”

— Deborah B, Boulder

Michael is back in Washington, D.C. fighting to extend the expanded Child Tax Credit for years to come because far too many parents in Colorado and across the country are working multiple jobs while struggling to lift their children out of poverty. That’s a sign that our economy doesn’t work for everyone, and that we need big transformative changes. 

Time is running out and Michael needs to know you’ve got his back as he fights to extend the Child Tax Credit for years to come, so please add your name today to show your support.

Thank you and talk soon,
