AR 93 New Jersey General Assembly · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Urges President and Congress to enact legislation permanently reinstating federal child tax credit as provided for in tax year 2021.

This New Jersey Assembly Resolution (AR 93) urges the U.S. President and Congress to permanently restore the expanded federal child tax credit levels from 2021. It requests legislation that would provide $3,600 annually for each child under age 6 and $3,000 for each child aged 6-17 (up from the current $2,000 maximum), ensuring families avoid a planned 2025 reduction to $1,000 per child. The resolution directly affects U.S. families with children under 17 who qualify for the federal tax credit, particularly those facing high childcare, housing, and food costs. It references the 2021 American Rescue Plan Act, which temporarily increased credit amounts and reduced child poverty, noting that without permanent action, credits would revert to pre-2021 levels by 2025. The resolution itself does not change law but advocates for federal legislative action.
