Reducing Child Poverty (Cong. Rec., June 24, 2021)

Summary

A page of the Congressional Record, House, dated June 24, 2021, at page H3117, opening with the end of a recorded vote, after which the bill was passed, and the list of Members recorded pursuant to House Resolution 8. A speaker on the expanded child tax credit says families will receive monthly payments of up to $300 per child and that more than 133,000 children in the district will be helped. Mr. Malinowski honors BSA Troop 19 in Short Hills, New Jersey, for its first class of female Eagle Scouts, and Ms. Granger asks consent to consider H.R. 18 on the Hyde amendment. A communication from the Clerk reports that the Senate passed S. 1251, and Mr. Carter of Georgia pays a tribute to Wayne Seay of Pooler.
