Last year, the Child Tax Credit provided a lifeline to working families, lifting millions out of poverty. However, the Senate failed to extend it into 2022, ripping the carpet out from under folks who relied on this support.
Now, Rep. Rashida Tlaib has introduced the End Child Poverty Act (ECPA) to create a universal, monthly child allowance of $393 per child.
The End Child Poverty Act is estimated to cut child poverty by 64% and cut deep child poverty by 70%.
The ECPA will provide a much needed safety net for families and children across the country.
It will help millions of families who are living paycheck to paycheck to afford diapers or formula for the month or allow their kids to participate in after-school sports and programs.
No child should be forced to live in poverty, especially in the wealthiest nation on the planet.
Thanks for standing up.
