HRES 88 United States House · 119th Congress

Supporting the designation of January 31, 2025, as "Earned Income Tax Credit Awareness Day".

HRES 88 is a symbolic House resolution designating January 31, 2025, as "Earned Income Tax Credit Awareness Day." It supports raising public awareness about the EITC - a refundable federal tax credit for low- and moderate-income workers - and calls on government agencies, nonprofits, and employers to promote access to the credit and free tax filing assistance. The resolution does not create new law or change eligibility; it solely aims to encourage more eligible workers to claim the credit they qualify for. Approximately 20% of eligible individuals currently do not claim the EITC, per the resolution’s background statements.
