Tell Rep. Bacon: It’s time to expand the Child and Dependent Care Tax Credit
President Trump returns to Washington with a clear mandate from voters — bring down the cost of goods and services for American families. There’s one area our member of Congress, Representative Don Bacon, can work with President Trump to deliver immediate impact: the cost of child care. Throughout the 2024 election, working families and employers made it clear that access to affordable, quality child care is essential for economic stability and a reliable workforce.
The Child and Dependent Care Tax Credit is a proven solution that builds on the Trump Administration’s 2019 strategy to put parents first. This approach focused on increasing choices for families and exploring new incentives for businesses to offer child care benefits to their employees.
This isn’t just about tax policy – it’s about supporting America’s workforce and economic growth. The reality is simple: parents need reliable, affordable child care to go to work. Employers need workers who can count on consistent child care, and children need quality early learning environments during these critical years of development. The Child and Dependent Care Tax Credit helps achieve all of these goals.
