House passed Build Back Better last month, now waiting on Senate by: Alexandra Limon WASHINGTON (Nexstar) — What could be the last round of federal child tax credit payments went out to families on Wednesday. But Democrats want to extend them by passing their Build Back Better plan. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said 60 million children benefitted, “a large number of them off of poverty, coming out of poverty because of the child tax credit.” Studies some of those children will again face poverty and hunger if the child tax credit payments stop. “It makes all the difference in the world for families struggling to pay the rent, families struggling to pay child care,” said Ohio Democrat Sen.
