How Can We Reduce Child Poverty?: The Challenge with the Child Tax Credit
Manage episode 378140095 series 2873488
We spoke with Elisa Minoff, Senior Policy Analyst at CSSP, and Huong Vu, Parent Leader Network member and Automatic Benefit for Children (ABC) Coalition Parent Advisory Board member, about their policy and advocacy work toward a permanent national child allowance. The need for a permanent expanded Child Tax Credit has only become more abundantly clear following the new Census Bureau data that shows the child poverty rate more than doubled from 5.2 percent in 2021 to 12.4 percent in 2022.
