Our Children Need You to Act Now!
Urge Congress to support action soon to make permanent key improvements in two working family tax credits — the EITC and CTC — that help millions of hard working families with children make ends meet.
If these are not extended, almost 8 million children will fall into or fall deeper into poverty.

Support Working Family Tax Credits
Dear [Decision Maker],
I urge you to support action to make permanent key improvements in two working family tax credits -- the Earned Income Tax Credit (ETIC) and Child Tax Credit (CTC), when Congress extends tax credits for corporations. Each year millions of hard-working families need these tax credits to make ends meet. If improvements are not extended more than 16 million people, including almost 8 million children, will fall into or deeper into poverty.
Your constituent and child advocate,
