Republicans Want the Child Tax Credit to Include Unborn Babies

The Providing for Life Act would allow people to apply the child tax credit to their unborn babies:

Rep. Ashley Hinson, R-Iowa, is leading a package of bills in the House called the Providing For Life Act, an ambitious attempt at overhauling the federal government’s family care system.Hinson told Fox News Digital her legislation “charts the policy course for a culture of life in America.””By expanding the child tax credit to include the unborn and providing additional support to working families, empowering women to care for their babies regardless of socioeconomic status or zip code and improving access to community resources, we can make a meaningful difference for those in need,” Hinson said.”These provisions, and others championed by the pro-life community, will ensure we protect the most vulnerable and make critical investments in the long-term well-being of our families.”

The parents have the ability to claim the tax credit for the pregnancy once the mother gives birth to the child. They would also gain “access to regular child tax credit in the current year.”

The bill places a $3,500 cap for children under five. The cap for children 6-17 would be $4,500.

The parents have to be employed.

Democrats did not allow the $2,000 tax credit for each dependent during COVID to become permanent.

The package also includes:

Other measures in the package include an option allowing parents to draw from their Social Security to finance up to three months of paid parental leave and enhancing certain benefits for new mothers. It also includes incentives for states to set guidelines on fathers paying for part of a woman’s pregnancy costs and would force cooperation with any child support requirements to receive SNAP food benefits.—In addition to more economic benefits for young families, Hinson’s legislation seeks to provide expecting parents with support programs on college campuses and at pregnancy resource centers and aims to establish “a federal clearinghouse of resources” and bolster support for social service programs at places of worship.For parents in low-income or other vulnerable communities, it “funds local demonstration programs providing volunteer mentoring and peer support services.”

If this is a way to stop the murder of unborn human beings then so be it. Anything to stop abortion.

But remember, just because Roe v. Wade is gone, we still have to change the hearts and minds of people.

As a former hardcore pro-abortion person it can be done. Trust me.
