There is a bipartisan tax bill, H.R. 7024, that President Biden supports and would cut taxes by $33B for families with children, but it being blocked in the Senate by @SenateGOP members. The @SenateGOP supports reimposing “baby and child penalties” on families having babies 👶.

We just had a bill on the floor that requires teachers to out LGBTQ students to their parents. I know students aged 15-17 who were kicked out of their homes when they were outed. I know there are a large # of LGBTQ homeless kids and many are transgender. This bill is harmful.

H.R. 7024 would mitigate “baby and child penalties” in the Child Tax Credit. Unfortunately, some @SenateGOP members want to reimpose those penalties on children. Pass H.R. 7024 now without harmful amendments to children. firstfocus.org/resource/the-c… #ChildTaxCreditForUS

Friendly reminder to get your oil changed, Minnesota. And while I’ve got your attention: Don’t forget to file your taxes to claim the Child Tax Credit and get up to $1,750 per child.

In the richest country in the world, it’s a disgrace that millions of parents struggle to feed their families. I joined @RonWyden and @NationalParents to urge my colleagues to pass the Wyden-Smith tax bill and expand the Child Tax Credit to support families across the country.

As a pediatrician, I saw firsthand how economic disparities can impact children’s health. I am grateful for the hard work of @HeadStartgov in Weld County, which give students the tools they need to be successful at school.
We have a question for @EricHovde. Would you vote for or against H.R. 7024, the legislation that would improve the Child Tax Credit? #VoteKids

H.R. 7024 also seeks to mitigate “child penalties” that are imposed when children and families experience a natural disaster, a family illness, the death of a parent, etc. Few believe public policy should kick a child when they are down. #ListenToTheRoosevelts👇 (5)

Say it louder, for the people in the back 📣 "I want to give public school teachers a raise!" - President @JoeBiden #InvestInKids #SOTU
"I want to give every child a good start by providing access to pre-school for 3 & 4 yr olds. Studies show that children who go to pre-school are nearly 50% more likely to finish HS & go on to earn a 2- or 4-year degree no matter their background." - @POTUS #SOTU #InvestInKids
Since the last #SOTU, we’ve seen a surge in labor organizing efforts yet virtually no increase in union membership. Harsh truth persists: even with such job growth, countless hardworking individuals continue to lack the collective bargaining power they deserve. #StateOfTheUnion
As @POTUS just mentioned — we are in the midst of a youth mental health crisis! In 2021, suicide was the 2nd highest cause of death for children ages 10-14. Now is the time to #InvestInKids & training for pediatric behavioral health professionals. #SOTU
The #SOTU has just begun. From WIC to IDEA grants, vital programs supporting children need full funding. @POTUS, urge Congress to #InvestInKids in the tonight's address!
Child & teen mortality increased by 20% between 2019-2021 — the largest increase in 50 yrs! During tonight's #SOTU, @POTUS must urge Congress to #InvestInKids & address this moral outrage.
As @FLOTUS says, “Any nation that out-educates us, will out-compete us.” A strong, immediate pro-child agenda is not only good for our children but also an investment in the stability and prosperity of our families, communities, & country. #SOTU #InvestInKids
By placing children at the center of tonight's #SOTU address, @POTUS can signal his a priority to #InvestInKIds and urge Congress to make children their focus over the next few weeks as they consider spending bills.
