Congressman John Delaney (MD-06) voted for this bill, which permanently extends enhancements to the Earned Income Tax Credit, the Child Tax Credit, and the American Opportunity Tax Credit for education expenses. It also permanently extends certain business tax provisions like the Research and Development Tax Credit and the Work Opportunity Tax Credit. The bill also temporarily extends several tax provisions. Congressman Delaney released the following statement: Today I voted in favor of a permanent extension of the Child Tax Credit and the expanded Earned Income Tax Credit, which are critical to low- and moderate-income families. And permanently extending the tax credits for Research and Development and Section 179 expensing will help our businesses invest in growing our economy. The Research and Development tax credit will help Maryland businesses invest in technology and continue innovating, which will create new, high-paying jobs for Marylanders. While I dont agree with everything included in the PATH Act, I believed that it was important to make some of these provisions permanent which allow businesses and families to do the long-term planning they need to succeed. But our job on tax reform is far from done. We need comprehensive tax reform. While we dont expect to accomplish that next year, there is an opportunity to do international tax reform which will produce much-needed revenue for infrastructure investments and eliminate the incentive for U.S. companies to invert and move overseas. If we dont act soon on this, it will be too late. ## | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
