introduced the Young Adult Tax Credit Act, a bill to create a universal $500 monthly tax credit, indexed to inflation, for every 18- to 24-year old in the United States
Create a universal $500 monthly tax credit, indexed to inflation, for every 18- to 24-year-old in the United States.
Occurrences
Evidence
IRS guidance for tax year 2025 says the Child Tax Credit applies to qualifying children generally under age 17, is worth up to $2,200 per qualifying child, and the Credit for Other Dependents is a nonrefundable credit with a maximum of $500 per dependent.
IRS lists individual credits taxpayers can claim, including Earned Income Tax Credit, credits for children or other dependents, adoption, childcare or dependent care, education, retirement savings, clean vehicles or home energy, premium tax credit, and certain less common credits.
Congress.gov records H.R. 1 as Public Law No. 119-21. Its tax summary includes permanent individual tax-rate provisions, a $2,200 child tax credit adjusted for inflation, a $500 nonrefundable credit for other dependents, deductions for tips/overtime/vehicle interest, and Trump accounts for people under 18 with a one-time federal deposit for certain newborns.
The Clerk records Roll Call 190 on H.R. 1, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, as passed 218-214 on July 3, 2025; Morgan McGarvey, Democrat of Kentucky, voted No.
Congress.gov identifies Morgan McGarvey as a Democratic representative for Kentucky's 3rd District in the 118th-119th Congresses, serving from 2023 to present, and lists his member activity, including sponsored and cosponsored legislation.
Assessments
No federal universal $500 monthly, inflation-indexed tax credit for all 18- to 24-year-olds has been enacted during Morgan McGarvey's federal service. Current IRS credit listings and the enacted 2025 tax package include other credits, such as the child tax credit and a limited annual credit for other dependents, but not the promised young-adult monthly credit. The provided record also does not show McGarvey sponsoring, passing, or materially advancing legislation that delivered this outcome.
