Copycat Kamala Harris Announces Same Parent Tax Credit Policy as Trump Ticket Wendell Husebø 16 Aug 2024
Vice President Kamala Harris supports a parent tax credit, her campaign announced Friday, the same policy the Trump-Vance ticket advocates.
It is not the first time Harris copied Trump’s populist agenda. She also copied Trump’s no tax on tips policy, a popular idea among service industry workers.
“Kamala Harris copied President Trump on No Tax On Tips,” Republican communications guru Steve Guest posted on X. “Now she is copying JD Vance on a child tax credit”:
https://twitter.com/SteveGuest/status/1824419175504204086Axios reported Harris’s proposal:
State of play: The economic plan includes tax cuts for middle-class families, including a $6,000 child tax credit for families during the first year of a kid’s life — when expenses go up, and income often goes down while a parent steps out of the workforce for child care.
Harris, echoing Biden, wants to bring back 2021’s expanded child tax credit, which was $3,600 per child under age 5 and $3,000 for those older, under the American Rescue Plan.
For lower-income adults who aren’t raising kids — a group often left behind by federal anti-poverty programs — the proposal would expand the earned income tax credit.
