    Default Biden hails 'transformative' child tax credit payments

    Is this helping families or welfare dependence & debt the sequel!?

    https://www.msn.com

    President Biden on Thursday hailed the expanded child tax credit as a "transformative" achievement that would offer needed relief for families and made the case for Congress to further extend the payments in forthcoming legislation.

    In remarks from the White House, Biden said the payments would spur the largest one-year decrease in child poverty in the United States and outlined how eligible families can expect to receive payments or sign up to receive them. Experts say that the tax credit could slash child poverty in half.


    "It's a reflection of our belief that the people of this country who need a tax cut aren't the folks at the top - they've gotten plenty of tax cuts, they're doing fine - but it's the people in the middle, the folks who are struggling or who are just looking for a little bit of, as my dad would say, a little breathing room," Biden said.

    Biden spoke to an audience that included nine families that will benefit from the child tax credit relief payments. A child was occasionally heard crying during his remarks, which Biden acknowledged and told the family, "don't worry about it."

    Vice President Harris delivered her remarks before Biden, offering a personal anecdote about her own experience growing up before emphasizing the impact the monthly payments will have for families.

    "If the struggle to make ends meet is monthly, the solution has to be also," Harris said.

    The Treasury Department and IRS began distributing the first batch of monthly child tax credit payments Thursday, sending payments to roughly 35 million families with almost 60 million children. The payments total roughly $15 billion. The expanded child tax credit payments are funded by the $1.9 trillion coronavirus relief bill that Biden signed into law in March, his first major legislative accomplishment as president.

    Hmm.. Well, while this is helpful to families & may even promote a baby boom.. That doesn't necessarily make it a win, win.. Especially considering all the debt & unemployed already seen during the pandemic era.

    Do you believe that Illegal Immigration is good for American families even after they bust out union jobs & depress wages?

    If this is making monthly payments to recipients it's a form of welfare disguised as a tax cut, like earned income credit.

    You're the ones who aren't voting for popular things.

    So are you going to run on a repeal of the Child Tax Credit?

    Good luck.

    What would be transformative is nationalizing all aspects of health care
    and making education accessible to all who seek it.
