The Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC) and Child Tax Credit (CTC)

EITC是美国最有效的计划,旨在使在职家庭摆脱贫困。它旨在通过补充低家庭收入工人的收入来“赚取工资”。反恐委员会通过奖励工作和认识抚养孩子的额外费用来帮助家庭维持生计。

Each of these critically important programs help individual families make ends meet and power the local economy. Together, these credits lifted an estimated 116,000 Pennsylvania children out of poverty annually from 2009-2011. PCCY provides analysis on the reach of these credits in Pennsylvania, and advocated to keep them strong.
