This bill modifies tax credits for residents of cities with over one million people. It adjusts the existing school tax credit by reducing it $20 for every $1,000 of income over $75,000 (single/head of household) or $150,000 (married filing jointly), but never below zero. It also creates a new $300 per child tax credit for qualifying children under 18, phased out by $10 for every $1,000 over $160,000 (head of household) or $320,000 (married filing jointly), with credits prorated for partial-year residency. The credit requires providing a child's Social Security number and applies only to residents of large cities.
