Take Action
On July 24th, President Bush
visited the Treasury facility in
northeast Philadelphia and was
greeted by over 200 protesters,
many of whom were rallying to
support expanding the Child Tax
Credit for parents.
In May during the
rush to push through President
Bush's tax break for millionaires,
other programs had to be reduced
or cutback in order to pay for
these tax breaks. Im../mediately
after passage of Bush's tax cuts,
it was discovered that the
families that most needed the
Child Tax Credit, those earning
between $10,500 and $26,550 were
not going to receive the Child Tax
Credit - this will affect about 12
million children! The Senate
moved quickly to correct this
measure, however, both Houses have
not moved on this legislation.
Please call Senators Specter and
Santorum and your Congressional
Representative
