For more than a year the International Nanny Association (INA) has been lobbying Congress to increase the federal Child and Dependent Care Tax Credit (CDCTC).
Today I'm pleased to report that President Obama plans to endorse this proposal in his State of the Union address this week! Here's a link to the story on CNN:http://politicalticker.blogs.cnn.com/2010/01/25/obama-to-propose-almost-doubling-child-care-tax-credit/#more-86862. While Obama's proposal isn't as comprehensive as INA's proposal, it's definitely a step in the right direction.
If you haven't already done so, I urge you to contact your member of Congress and Senators to support increasing the CDCTC. There is information and a sample letter on INA's webpage here:http://www.nanny.org/GOV.php. There are 3 bills in Congress -- let's get behind them!
Take care,
