Make the Expanded Child Tax Credit permanent.
Occurrences
Evidence
Horsford said Tax Day showed working families were left with temporary and inadequate relief, and he said Congress should deliver permanent and fair relief for workers. The statement does not mention the child tax credit specifically, but it shows he was still pressing for permanent family tax relief in April 2026.
GovInfo shows H.R. 2763, the American Family Act, was introduced in the 119th Congress and referred to Ways and Means. Its title says it would establish a refundable child tax credit with monthly advance payment, and Horsford is listed among the cosponsors.
Assessments
The promised outcome was to make the expanded Child Tax Credit permanent. The evidence shows Horsford continued to advocate for permanent family tax relief and cosponsored H.R. 2763, the American Family Act, which would expand/refund the Child Tax Credit with monthly advance payments. But the bill was only introduced and referred to committee, and there is no evidence that the expanded Child Tax Credit was made permanent. Because he made a serious legislative effort but the promised policy outcome has not been delivered, this should be scored as never with an effort badge.
