Summary

The House resolution calls on Congress to adopt a national target for ending child poverty and to make permanent the expanded Child Tax Credit that cut poverty in 2021. It also asks for higher federal spending on children, broader access to early‑education programs, and equitable public education, while encouraging states and territories to adopt similar policies. The goal is to reduce the hardship faced by children, especially those in low‑income, immigrant, and minority households.
