Investing in childcare helps our economy by letting parents fully participate in our workforce. I’m glad the COVID relief bill expands the child tax credit, but as currently written, the bill makes it harder for single parents to get help. We must drop this #SingleParentPenalty. — PolitiTweet.org

The proposed child tax credit gives single parents less help than married parents, but this doesn’t make any sense. Most of us are responsible for 100% of childcare costs, 100% of the income needed to support our families, and 100% of housework. https://t.co/pRh5znRQaM — PolitiTweet.org

There’s no discount for being a single parent (trust me, I know). So, single parents shouldn’t face stricter income… https://t.co/aolkUMrwdK

Dropping the #SingleParentPenalty would help more kids and target relief where it’s needed most, as 81% of single parents are women and 66% are Black. This is a crucial step since millions of women—especially women of color—are bearing the brunt of the pandemic’s economic pain. — PolitiTweet.org
