What's in the bill to expand the child tax credit
The federal child tax credit may soon be expanded as part of an effort by some lawmakers to ensure that more American families can access the benefit. If the proposal becomes law it would gradually increase the credit and allow lower-income families to receive a refundable tax credit for each child. Geoff Bennett discussed more with Sharon Parrott of the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities.
