PHOTOS: Rubio, Curbelo Discuss Benefits of Child Tax Credit in Miami
Miami, FL—U.S. Senator Marco Rubio (R-FL) and U.S. Representative Carlos Curbelo (R-FL) today held a roundtable discussion on how the enhanced child tax credit is helping South Florida families. Last week, Rubio held a similar roundtable in Pensacola.
Since 2014, Rubio has pushed for an enhanced child tax credit to help working and middle-class American families. Standing up to his own party’s leadership during tax reform, Rubio won provisions in the tax bill that doubled the per-child tax credit to $2,000 and increased the refundable portion of the credit to $1,400, which will increase with inflation each year until the full $2,000 applies per child. Rubio’s efforts help more than 90 million families.
“We had a great discussion with South Florida families today on how the enhanced child tax credit is helping to ease the burden of raising children,” said Rubio. “These parents work hard to provide for their families, and now because of Republican-led tax reform, they able to keep more of their own money. Today’s roundtable is yet another example of how the enhanced child tax credit is a win for Florida’s working families.”
Miami, FL- El senador estadounidense Marco Rubio (R-FL) y el representante estadounidense Carlos Curbelo (R-FL) sostuvieron una charla hoy sobre cómo el crédito tributario para niños está ayudando a las familias del Sur de la Florida. La semana pasada, Rubio sostuvo una charla similar en la ciudad de Pensacola.
Desde el 2014, Rubio ha impulsado la implementación de un crédito fiscal infantil para ayudar a las familias estadounidenses y las de la clase media. Enfrentándose al liderazgo de su propio partido durante la reforma fiscal, Rubio ganó provisiones en la ley tributaria la cual que duplicó el crédito fiscal por hijo a $2,000 dólares y aumentó la porción reembolsable del crédito a $1,400 dólares, la cual aumentará con la inflación cada año hasta los $2,000 dólares por niño. Los esfuerzos de Rubio ayudan a más de 90 millones de familias.
“Hoy sostuvimos una buena charla con las familias del sur de la Florida sobre cómo el crédito tributario para niños está ayudando en la crianza de sus hijos”, dijo Rubio. “Estos padres trabajan arduamente para mantener a sus familias, y ahora gracias a la reforma tributaria liderada por los republicanos, pueden guardar más de su propio dinero. La charla de hoy es otro ejemplo de cómo el crédito fiscal infantil es una victoria para las familias de la Florida”.
