Guaranteed income programs—like The Bridge Project in New York—trust mothers to decide what’s right for their babies, and spend their money accordingly. msmagazine.com/2023/08/15/chi…

'Two-thirds of moms are breadwinners, and 4 out of 5 Black mothers are the sole or primary provider for their households. Yet America’s leaders and laws leave mothers to figure it out on their own.' Moms, and the society they shape, deserve better msmagazine.com/2023/08/15/mom…

Wow. This is such a tragic chart. **Child poverty in the United States more than doubled in 2022** 2022 child poverty rate: 12.4% 2021 child poverty rate: 5.2% (a historic low) This did not have to happen. It's largely due to ending the enhanced Child Tax Credit.

If the #ChildTaxCredit expansion had been renewed, 3 million fewer children would have been in poverty in 2022. Instead, the number of children in poverty more than doubled, from 4 million in 2021 to 9 million in 2022: cbpp.org/blog/analyzing…

The thrill of getting is fleeting. The joy of giving lasts. Data: happiness fades quickly when we buy gifts for ourselves, but sustains when we give gifts to others or donate to charity. Giving is the greatest source of meaning. #GivingTuesday
