Mr. Speaker, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act worked. It grew the economy. It increased revenue and it helped every American family to achieve a better life. It also, for those in opposition to this bill, for the first time, required a Social Security number for the child in order for a family to receive the child tax credit. Many who are in opposition to this bill today voted for the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. Are you telling me you regret that vote? This continues the provision to require children to have a Social Security number for the family to benefit from the child tax credit.
