Politico - Clinton proposes child tax credit expansions
The MSM is really ignoring the policy proposals coming from the Clinton campaign, but she is steadily introducing a string of proposals regarding what she would do if elected:

Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton will propose doubling the Child Tax Credit to $2,000 per child, up to and including 4-year-olds, the campaign announced this morning.
Clinton would also expand the credit by lowering the threshold for claiming a refund from $3,000 in earnings to the first dollar of earnings for families with children of all ages, according to a statement from the campaign.
The campaign said as many as 15 million children would qualify for the credit of up to $2,000.
Hard-working, middle-class families are struggling with rising costs for child care, health care, caregiving and college, Clinton said in the statement. This new tax credit will make their lives a little bit easier and help restore fairness to our economy.
