Relative to CalEITC Awareness Week.

This Senate Resolution establishes CalEITC Awareness Week from January 30 to February 6, 2026, to promote awareness of the California Earned Income Tax Credit among eligible low-income residents. The resolution highlights the program's role in reducing poverty by providing tax credits to working families, including those with Individual Taxpayer Identification Numbers and children under six. It aims to encourage eligible households to claim their benefits through Volunteer Income Tax Assistance sites, which offer free, culturally responsive tax preparation services. The text notes that over 3.3 million Californians claimed the credit in 2024, yet many eligible families still do not receive the full benefits they qualify for.
