Congress increased the maximum federal CTC by $200, but eligibility for the CTC got harder.
Under new rules, less families qualify for the full credit because their income isn't high enough. We're grateful Maryland's CTC helps those who need it most. Visit marylandtaxcredits.gov/EarnedIt

The MAGA Republican budget plan will make healthcare + groceries more expensive for us by slashing $ for Medicaid and food assistance to finance more tax breaks for the very rich + big corporations.
