We are deeply saddened at the passing of Susan Rees, a great builder of the Coalition on Human Needs who served as Executive Director from 1983 to 1991.

Call your senators and tell them that you didn’t receive your monthly payment!

For the last 6 months,  millions of U.S. families have been receiving monthly Child Tax Credit payments of between $250 and $300 per child. These payments have cut childhood poverty by a third almost immediately and allowed many low-income and working families to afford basic necessities from winter coats to after-school enrichment programs to finally being able to save for their kids’ college education.

On January 14th, families will not receive their monthly Child Tax Credit payments. That’s because, even while the U.S. House has passed the Build Back Better Act, including the expanded Child Tax Credit, the Senate has failed to act―unable to secure the 50th vote needed to pass this critical investment legislation.

Will you call your U.S. senators today and let them know what the monthly Child Tax Credit payments have meant to you and your family and urge them to act? Democrats and Republicans alike need to hear from us! 

Call: 1-888-738-3058

While the wealthy and corporations continue to enjoy outrageous tax cuts while they hoard their wealth and raise prices on all U.S. families, working families continue to struggle through a deadly pandemic that is ravaging our schools and our communities.

Tell your senators that we can afford to continue the monthly child tax credit payments by making sure the rich and corporations finally start paying their fair share in taxes.

Even if you don’t directly benefit from the Child Tax Credit, please call your Senators―tell them you understand how important it is to invest in our children.

Thank you for taking action today and holding our elected officials accountable.
