Week after week communities across the country are feeling the impact of President Biden’s American Rescue Plan. From funding direct $1,400 checks, health care benefits, and vaccine distribution to getting students back in classrooms and businesses reopened, communities across the country are seeing the many ways in which President Biden’s American Rescue Plan will improve their lives and supercharge our nation’s economy.
The real benefits of the American Rescue Plan are continuing to play out as the Biden administration announced last week that the ARP’s monthly child tax credit payments will hit bank accounts on July 15, delivering much needed relief to families across the country.
