It's been been well established that the expanded Child Tax Credit had a huge impact on reducing child poverty in the US.

Now, there's new data showing that Democrats who run on renewing the program will get a big boost at the polls this November.

Democratic congressional candidates in close races need every possible edge to win in November.

Here's an easy one: campaign on reviving the expanded Child Tax Credit.

.@SenSherrodBrown gets it spot on:

"I’ll put it this way: no more tax breaks for big corporations and the wealthy unless the child tax credit’s with it. I'll lay down in front of a bulldozer on this."

Designing effective benefits policy is a complex task, and there are many open questions about how to best structure programs to make the most positive impact.

But the evidence is in for work requirements: they just don’t work.

Why requiring work for the Child Tax Credit is a bad idea: https://t.co/DuFdKZ34u1

To guaranteed economic security, we need to make sure that public benefits actually reach people who are eligible for them.

That isn’t happening with our current safety net.

1/3 📢⏯ New #SPpodcast is out: 'UBI and social protection systems'! Has the time come for countries to take Universal Basic Income (UBI) seriously? Our 10th episode focuses on the ways the #UBI connects to social protection systems at large.

[Universal Income Project @UIProj]

Targeting benefits may seem like an efficient way to allocate resources, but these programs often struggle with low ​take-up rates among eligible families.

To reach more poor people, we should pursue universal programs.

[Jim Pugh @dr_pugh]

As negotiations continue around the expanded Child Tax Credit, some centrist Democrats are pushing to make the credit more means-tested.

In practice, that may leave out many poor American families who need it most.
