Community Organizing
Imagine having the freedom to invest in your children’s future, without constantly worrying about paying for basic necessities. This financial stability is out of reach for the 39% of Connecticut families who are living paycheck to paycheck across every zip code. Meanwhile, our state budget is flourishing with record-breaking billion-dollar surpluses.
It’s time to close this gap with a CT Child Tax Credit. Putting money back into families’ hands is a proven solution, giving parents the flexibility to buy what their children need most.
Sign our petition today to tell your elected leaders that you support the CT Child Tax Credit!
Together, we can create a brighter future for our kids.
