DeLauro | D000216 | delauro.house.gov | delauro | https://delauro.house.gov/media-center/press-releases | scraper | Today, Congresswoman Rosa DeLauro (CT-03) released a statement in response to new data from the U.S. Census Bureau that shows failure to extend the expanded, monthly Child Tax Credit contributed to the childhood poverty rate increasing by nearly 140% in a single year – the largest increase on record. “There has been no modern policy that has been as successful as the expanded, monthly Child Tax Credit. Millions of children were lifted out of poverty, hunger was cut by 26 percent, and families were provided with unprecedented economic security. Families used this money to pay for housing, food, child care so they could go to work, and other basic essentials of everyday life. Moreover, for every $1 invested, the Child Tax Credit provided $8 in social and economic benefits. | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-06T18:35:26Z |
