Contributing sentiments towards policy:

60% : Efforts to expand the federal child tax credit will likely fall short during this session of Congress after Senate Republicans blocked a bipartisan bill with tax breaks for low-income families and businesses on Thursday.
51% : One of those would allow companies to get immediate tax deductions for domestic research and development instead of deducting it over the course of five years.
44% : "[RELATED: The fight for tax breaks for CT families in 2025 is underway]The $78 billion bipartisan compromise -- negotiated by U.S. Sen. Ron Wyden, D-Ore., and U.S. Rep. Jason Smith, R-Mo. -- included restoring a few tax deductions for businesses in exchange for a modest bump to the federal child tax credit.
