The child tax credit is a societal statement to recognize the value that children bring to our country. The child tax credit also offsets the costs that parents make as they invest their time, effort, and money into raising the next generation. Parenthood begins long before birth, and the emotional and time investments that mothers give to their unborn children during the prenatal period is an important foundation for strong families. Utah recognizes the value of families more than anywhere else. In addition to adding to the benefits created by the current child tax credit, this bill will help protect life, support parents, and reduce the number of children born into poverty.
