Public Law 119-21 was enacted July 4, 2025. Section 70104 amended the child tax credit by replacing $2,000 with $2,200, requiring Social Security numbers, indexing the credit, and capping the refundable amount at $1,400 before inflation adjustment. Searches within the law found no 'advance monthly' child tax credit provision.

The major enacted 119th Congress tax law changed the child tax credit but did not establish a fully refundable child tax credit with monthly advance payments. It supports only a partial policy change, not fulfillment of the promise.

Public Law 119-21, H.R. 1, section 70104, Extension and Enhancement of Increased Child Tax Credit
secondary · model gpt-5.5 · confidence 90%

The IRS states that the Child Tax Credit is a non-refundable credit, while the Additional Child Tax Credit is the refundable part. For tax year 2025, the CTC is worth up to $2,200 per qualifying child and ACTC is up to $1,700 depending on income, with earned income of at least $2,500 required.

Current IRS guidance describes a non-refundable CTC with a limited refundable ACTC and income threshold, claimed on a tax return. That is not a refundable child tax credit with monthly advance payments.

The IRS states that under the American Rescue Plan of 2021, advance payments of up to half the 2021 Child Tax Credit were sent to eligible taxpayers. It also states that the Child Tax Credit Update Portal is no longer available.

The IRS treats advance child tax credit payments as a 2021 program, not a current program enacted during Olszewski's House term. This undercuts fulfillment as of July 2, 2026.

The Clerk records Roll Call 145 on H.R. 1 as passed, 215 yeas to 214 nays. The roll call lists Representative Olszewski, Democrat of Maryland, voting Nay.

Olszewski voted against H.R. 1, the 2025 tax law that made partial child tax credit changes. Because that law did not create monthly advance refundable CTC payments, this vote does not show delivery or concrete advancement of the promise.
