Promoting the EITC. |
We could inject $1 billion into our local Los Angeles economy if only everyone who was qualified for the Earned Income Tax Credit would apply for it. I joined elected officials like State Board of Equalization member John Chiang and County Supervisor Yvonne Braithwaite Burke at a downtown press conference to promote the EITC and to remind families who apply for it that they may also qualify for other programs in our ACCESS portfolio(.pdf), such as Healthy Families and Cal Grants.
