Survey of 2024 Presidential campaign websites: on Families & Children


Marianne Williamson: Massively realign investment in the direction of children

We know that a child's brain is infinitely more flexible, emotionally intelligent, and capable of learning and retaining information than an adult's. The neuroplasticity in the brain of a child is at its height before the age of eight. As a consequence, I would call for a massive realignment of investment in the direction of children. Every school, every library, every community, should be a place where learning, nature, the arts and all forms of sustainable living are celebrated and fostered.

Will Hurd: Increase child tax credit so parents can afford childcare

The average cost for an infant in a childcare center is an astonishing $1,230 per month. For many parents, that's more per year than the cost of a college education. The government can help ease this financial burden. The long-term solution to this problem is not President Biden issuing some kind of executive order. The solution is passing legislation that increases the child tax credit so that more Americans with kids get to keep the money that they've earned.

Kamala Harris: Restore both Child Tax Credit and Earned Income Tax Credit

Vice President Harris and Governor Walz believe that working families deserve a break. They will do this by restoring two tax cuts designed to help middle class and working Americans: the Child Tax Credit and the Earned Income Tax Credit. Through these two programs, millions of Americans get to keep more of their hard-earned income. They will also expand the Child Tax Credit to provide a $6,000 tax cut to families with newborn children.
