CASH TAX CREDIT: CASH PROVIDES PREDICTABILITY, EMPOWERING FAMILIES NOT JUST TO MAKE ENDS MEET, BUT TO MAKE CHOICES THAT ARENT CONSTRAINED BY FINANCIAL INSECURITY. ECONOMIC SECURITY PROJECT IS FIGHTING TO EXPAND AND MODERNIZE CASH TAX CREDITS, SO THAT THEY WORK MORE POWERFULLY FOR MORE PEOPLE. WE AIM TO MAKE THE EXPANDED MONTHLY CHILD TAX CREDIT PERMANENT, AND TO UPDATE THE EARNED INCOME TAX CREDIT (EITC). AN IMPROVED EITC WOULD ARRIVE, LIKE THE CHILD TAX CREDIT, WITHOUT THE RECIPIENT EVEN HAVING TO FILE FOR IT, AS AN AUTOMATIC MONTHLY PAYMENT, RATHER THAN A LUMP SUM AT TAX TIME. THESE MONTHLY CASH PAYMENTS WOULD HELP SMOOTH INCOME VOLATILITY, AFFORDING PEOPLE BASELINE STABILITY SO THEY CAN MEET THEIR REGULAR EXPENSES AND MAKE PLANS WITH CONFIDENCE. WE ARE ALSO WORKING TO ENSURE THESE POPULAR CREDITS ARE EASY TO RECEIVE, AND WIDELY AND EQUITABLY AVAILABLE, REGARDLESS OF A PERSONS IMMIGRATION STATUS OR INCOME LEVEL. THE CREDITS SHOULD INCLUDE LOW INCOME STUDENTS, AND THOSE WHOSE WORK HAS BEEN OVERLOOKED IN THE PAST - SUCH AS PARENTS OR OTHER CAREGIVERS CARING FOR YOUNG CHILDREN AND THOSE WHO TAKE CARE OF SICK, DISABLED, OR ELDERLY FAMILY MEMBERS.ANTI-MONOPOLY FUND: THE ANTIMONOPOLY FUND (AMF) WAS LAUNCHED IN THE FALL OF 2019 TO FULFILL A CRITICAL NEED AT A PIVOTAL TIME: TO RESOURCE, COBUILD, AND UNITE A BURGEONING FACTION OF ANTIMONOPOLY ACTIVISTS AND THINKERS INTO A MOVEMENT THAT CAN SERIOUSLY CHALLENGE CONCENTRATED CORPORATE POWER. ECONOMIC SECURITY PROJECT IS BOLSTERING A DYNAMIC NEW MOVEMENT AGAINST MONOPOLIES BY WORKING WITH THE PEOPLE MOST AFFECTED-WORKERS, SMALL BUSINESSES, PEOPLE OF COLOR, AND OTHER CONSTITUENCIES. WE ARE: SUPPORTING AND AMPLIFYING LEADERS WHO ARE TILTING THE BALANCE OF POWER BACK FROM CORPORATIONS TO PEOPLE; GROWING THE FIELD BY SEEDING ANTIMONOPOLY NEWCOMERS AND EXPANDING CAPACITIES OF ANTIMONOPOLY VANGUARDS; RESOURCING TIMELY INITIATIVES TO BUILD MOMENTUM; FUNDING NEW STRANDS OF EMPIRICAL RESEARCH; AND SHIFTING CULTURAL NARRATIVES AROUND MONOPOLY POWER.
