I don’t need to tell you that our families are struggling. Everything is harder in a pandemic—affording rent, paying our bills, putting food on the table, affording childcare, and trying to do our jobs. This is why we need real solutions that put real money in the pockets of struggling families. Luckily there is an answer already working its way through the U.S. Congress: Expanding and increasing working family tax credits like the Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC) and Child Tax Credit (CTC). ***SIGN OUR LETTER NOW calling on your members of Congress to include an increase and expansion of the...

Families & The Federal Budget

January 19, 2021

“We not only have an economic imperative to act now, I believe we have a moral obligation. In this pandemic in America, we can not let people go hungry. We can not let people get evicted. We can not watch nurses, educators, and others lose their jobs, we so badly need them. We must act now and act decisively. My fellow Americans, the decisions we make in the next few weeks and months are going to determine whether we thrive in a way that benefits all Americans or that we stay stuck in a place where those at the top do great, while economic growth for most everyone else is just a spectator...

Unless Congress acts quickly, many of the pandemic relief policies that have been lifelines for our families (such as expanded unemployment benefits, emergency paid family leave and earned sick days, and eviction protections) will all expire on December 31st . Families have waited way too long for Congress to take action!

We’ll get straight to the point: We’re about to go off a COVID cliff. And we need your help. In just three weeks, unless Congress acts, many of the pandemic relief policies that have been lifelines for our families (like expanded unemployment benefits, emergency paid family leave and earned sick days, and eviction protections) will all expire on December 31st. [1] This is happening as COVID cases are soaring and as we learn that nearly twenty six million adults reported they didn’t have enough food to eat in the past week, including more than one in six adults with children.

Following is a statement from the #SAVETHE600 Coalition : There should be no greater priority for our nation’s elected officials than ensuring people are able to stay afloat and make ends meet during this global pandemic. Tens of millions of people are facing unemployment and are suffering because emergency unemployment payments were left to expire. Our economy is in crisis, and yet the Senate Republican leadership repeatedly fails to respond to the increasingly desperate needs of their constituents and the demands of millions of people across the country. Instead of focusing on the urgent...

Last week on KidsRising, we had a complete takeover by the incredible New Jersey Institute for Social Justice (NJISJ). This non-profit organization focuses on assisting New Jersey urban communities in employment opportunities, community-oriented alternatives to incarceration for youth, and changing criminal policy to help fight for justice for all. This powerful graphic depicts that 150 years is enough of the investment of trapping children in the prison system (via Instagram @ 4kidsrising ). NJISJ “took over” our Instagram (@4kidsrising), Twitter (@ Kids_Rising ), and Facebook page (...
