The Center for Budget and Policy published a brief encouraging the adoption or expansion of state EITCs. The report includes an update on the status of state EITCs around the country and makes the case for the positive impact of state EITCs on the lives of working families. Furthermore, the report indicates that state EITCs can be easy to administer and less expensive than many other tax cuts. Modeled after the federal EITC, state EITCs aim to reward work and alleviate poverty among working families, particularly children.
