Our families at @springboard_to are struggling with rising prices on necessities while also dealing with the blow of losing the expanded #ChildTaxCredit. We are going backwards in fighting poverty and must restore this crucial policy now. cnn.com/2022/03/11/per

GET. YOUR. MONEY! I’ve been seeing tons of questions about the #ChildTaxCredit so I did my homework and found some answers for you all. WHY? Because I want YOU to get this money. Use #MyChildTaxCredit, share your story about how you're spending this money that you deserve!

When we say #CashMatters, we really mean it! Every family has basic needs that can only be met with cash (think diapers). There is also ample evidence that cash assistance can help children succeed. This #TANFat25, we can make sure more kids get the support they need to thrive.

Thank you @POTUS & the dedicated Members of Congress who made this #ChildTaxCredit a reality. Let’s work together to get the credit extended to protect our working families and all children. If you are a parent, please visit the site because you might be eligible.
