An ad in Georgia’s U.S. Senate race says national Democrats 'send a fortune to Ukraine but nothing for our children.' The figure for spending on U.S. children in 2021 was seven times larger than federal outlays for Ukraine. Pants on Fire.
By comparison, federal spending on U.S. children during Biden’s administration has been far larger.
Federal spending on U.S. children in 2021 totaled $482 billion, the Urban Institute found — far more than the $66 billion that’s been appropriated to support Ukraine. One of the bill’s centerpieces, an effort to aid children and families, came from an expansion of the child tax credit that taxpayers could receive as a monthly cash payment, rather than waiting for a reduction in what they owed at tax time. The change was for one year only; efforts to extend it permanently have stalled.
