Abstract
On behalf of the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform, Senator Elizabeth Warren and Representative Elijah E. Cummings issued a staff report lookings into the tax landscape in Alabama, specifically critical tax credits that are expiring. The report shows that these expiring tax credits are directed to low- and middle-income individuals, families, and children. The report finds that if these tax credits are not renewed then thousands of these families will face harsh economic penalties which could impede social mobility. Additionally, the report finds that the consequences this will have on families will carry over to the Alabama economy as well.
