expanding the Earned Income Tax Credit
Support expanding the Earned Income Tax Credit.
Occurrences
Evidence
The campaign priority page says Marilyn Strickland supports expanding effective policies like the Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC).
Strickland's office said the Build Back Better Act would provide a tax cut for low-wage workers by extending the American Rescue Plan's EITC expansion.
The House clerk roll call shows Strickland voted Yea on passage of H.R. 5376, the Build Back Better Act.
Assessments
The promise was framed as supporting expansion of the Earned Income Tax Credit, not guaranteeing enactment. During the same congressional term, Strickland publicly backed extending the American Rescue Plan EITC expansion through the Build Back Better Act and voted Yea on House passage of H.R. 5376, which included that EITC expansion. That satisfies the promised action of support.
