In my district in California’s East Bay, the American Rescue Plan has been transformative, especially its expansion of the Child Tax Credit. Families in my district alone received 74,000 individual payments for a total of close to $160 million during the last half of 2021. For thousands of families in our community, this money meant the difference between having childcare or not, having healthy food on the table or not, having a secure place to live or not.
