The #AmericanRescuePlan is expected to lift tens of thousands of DC children out of poverty & give our unemployed workers a small boost.

Projections from @urbanstitute show poverty could decline by 42% among Black Americans & 39% among Hispanic Americans. https://t.co/nnQdIcZm2q

Spending money on others can make us happier. But it matters how we give. We can make a greater impact, and boost our own happiness along the way, if we make a key shift in how we help others: appreciate our shared humanity.

Escaping the cycle of poverty in America may become even harder in a few months. The #Federal #Poverty line may be adjusted to make qualifying for social safety nets even harder to accomplish. (1/2)
