Bill overview
This House Resolution expresses concern over the high rate of child poverty in the United States, which is significantly higher than in other wealthy nations. It highlights the negative impacts of poverty on children’s health, education, and overall well-being, and calls for increased federal investment in programs aimed at supporting families and reducing poverty. The resolution also emphasizes the need to address systemic inequities that contribute to child poverty, particularly for marginalized communities and those living in Puerto Rico and US territories.
