Kamala Harris proposes expanding Child Tax Credit to $6,000 for newborns and $3,600 for other children.

Kamala Harris proposes expanding the Child Tax Credit (CTC) to $6,000 for newborns and $3,600 for other children, as part of her economic agenda targeting middle-class voters. The current CTC offers eligible families up to $2,000 per child. Harris' plan aligns with the pandemic-era policy that provided a $6,000 tax credit for newborns in the first year and $3,600 per child annually for others. The expanded credit during the pandemic helped reduce food insecurity rates for households with children, according to research.
