Ms. McDonald Rivet introduced the following bill; which was referred to the Committee on Ways and Means. Bill Number H.R. 8305 ... To amend the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 to increase the amount of the earned income tax credit for parents of young children.
We can cut taxes for working families.
Evidence
"Ms. McDonald Rivet introduced the following bill; which was referred to the Committee on Ways and Means"; bill title: "Working Parents Tax Relief Act of 2026"; purpose: "To amend the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 to increase the amount of the earned income tax credit for parents of young children."
"Today ... introduced the Working Parents Tax Relief Act, a game-changing tax cut that would return to working parents up to an additional $5,500 per child under age four and lift hundreds of thousands of families out of poverty."
The page includes the Working Parents Tax Relief Act announcement and describes it as a "game-changing tax cut" for working parents.
Assessments
The evidence shows McDonald Rivet made a serious, concrete effort to fulfill the promise by introducing the Working Parents Tax Relief Act of 2026 to expand the earned income tax credit for parents of young children. That clearly advances the promised goal of cutting taxes for working and middle-class families. However, the available record only shows bill introduction and referral to committee, with no enactment or implemented tax relief. Under the rubric, a serious legislative attempt that did not achieve the promised outcome is scored as never, with effort_badge true.
