Child Poverty Is a Policy Choice

1 in 7 children across the U.S. is living in poverty.  

Millions don't have a safe place to call home, nutritious meals or the education they deserve. Strengthening the Child Tax Credit (CTC) could change their lives.   

Improvements to the CTC helped slash child poverty by 50%. But if the current CTC is allowed to expire, millions of families will see their credit cut in half. This is especially devastating for kids in rural America – where the risk of hunger, homelessness and learning loss is even higher. 

Tell Congress: Strengthen the Child Tax Credit!  

Right now, 1 in 7 kids across the U.S. are growing up in poverty, and 13 million are facing food insecurity. As the cost of everyday essentials continues to rise, their well-being is being put in greater danger. 

Strengthening the Child Tax Credit (CTC) would be life-changing for families, providing critical relief so parents aren't forced to choose between buying nutritious food, affording learning opportunities for their children or paying the bills.  

Improvements to the CTC helped slash child poverty by 50%. But if the current CTC is allowed to expire, millions of American families will see their credit cut in half. This is especially devastating for kids in rural America – where the risk of hunger, homelessness and learning loss is even higher.  

Child poverty is a policy choice. As an advocate for kids, I urge you to support America's families by strengthening the Child Tax Credit (CTC).  

Thank you for helping children thrive!
