2024 WY Senate race: on Welfare & Poverty


Scott Morrow: Supports SNAP and ARPA's child tax credit

Many Children in Wyoming and all over the USA still go to bed hungry and do not get breakfast before school. The incumbent votes 100% of the time against SNAP and other programs to ensure kids receive appropriate nutrition to maintain maximum health and wellness. In 2021, the American Rescue Plan Act included a provision called the child tax credit wherein needy families in Wyoming and elsewhere received monthly checks in lieu of the Earned Income Credit upon filing their tax return. With about 65 million American children, or 64,000 kids in Wyoming, briefly lifted out of poverty until the program sunsetted and the republican caucus filibustered renewal thereof, the incumbent Senator voted against the American Rescue Plan. I support it.
