NEW: After having her son, Lori Ament nearly took her own life. Depression, surprise copays, & childcare costs all piled up.

The new monthly Child Tax Credit payments have lifted a weight off her.

Lori says she needs her senator, Kyrsten Sinema, to vote to make them permanent.

According to our new survey of parents, 62 percent of families are concerned about “their family’s ability to make it through the winter, mentally / emotionally.” Meanwhile, the Senate is dragging its feet on whether to send any relief at all. https://t.co/BRXsarnwOS ☹️
