Possible Tax Increase
HR 1561 was introduced in April, 2005 by Congressman Ford of Tennessee to increase the tax credit to $15,000.00. The proposed Childhood Adoption Act, will increase the adoption tax credit and exclusion that the federal government grants eligible taxpayers for certain expenses paid to adopt an eligible child from $10,000 to $15,000. In addition, the Childhood Adoption Act will make the credit fully refundable in order to make the adoption tax credit more meaningful to people with lower incomes. Please write in support of this bill to:
