According to estimates from the Niskanen Center, 97 percent of households in Nevada's Fourth District are currently eligible for the Child Tax Credit, which was expanded through the American Rescue Plan that Congressman Horsford worked to pass in March 2021. "Since the first monthly Child Tax Credit payment went out in July, families across our district have shared countless stories about how this tax cut is changing their lives," said Congressman Steven Horsford. "With extra money in their pockets, Nevada families are buying new school uniforms for their kids, catching up on bills, and supporting local businesses. I have always believed that Nevada's children are the best investment we can make, and I am proud to be fighting for a long-term extension of the Child Tax Credit to give Nevada's families the security they deserve." According to estimates by the Joint Economic Committee, the expanded Child Tax Credit will continue to pump $179.1 million into Nevada's economy each month through December 2021. Congressman Horsford is a strong advocate for provisions in President Biden's Build Back Better Act that would implement a long-term extension of the expanded Child Tax Credit.
