Boost the Middle Class Act

HR 2800, the "Boost the Middle Class Act," increases the Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC) for low-to-moderate income workers and families. It raises the base credit amounts (e.g., from $6,330 to $13,629 for single filers) and expands the income thresholds where benefits phase out (e.g., from $11,610 to $24,992 for single filers), while adjusting inflation calculations to 2025. These changes directly benefit millions of working households, particularly those with children, by increasing refundable tax credits. The bill takes effect for tax years beginning after December 31, 2025.
