Thank you Republicans for dropping the charade with your tax bill. We can see your true colors now. Abolishing the adoption tax credit? Really? The National Review said it best...
Adoption Tax Credit: A Pro-Life Policy Republicans Must Save | National Review
But what is important here is you could build one air craft carrier with the revenue that eliminating this credit will generate for the Feds in 10 years. Tens of thousands of vulnerable children may now be priced out of a forever family because Republicans think the estate tax is such an unethical financial burden on families worth nearly $6 million. Priorities, right?
What’s more, the credit is one of the government’s most important pro-life policies. It’s a declaration that the pro-life ethic doesn’t stop (as the Left is so fond of arguing) at birth, but also extends into making certain that every child is a wanted child. It’s a way for the federal government to be an agent of relief and assistance in a process that’s too long, too difficult, and too expensive.
