Voices 2008 Congressional Wrap-up

From Voices for America’s Children

In 2008, Congress took several legislative actions that were victories for America’s children and families. Actions such as the delay of potentially harmful regulations that would have restricted health services, the passage of foster care reform, and the extension of tax credits for families with children are all sound investments in America’s children and young adults. Despite these victories, the 110th Congress left a good bit of unfinished business for the incoming 111th Congress. Voices_08_Congressional_Wrap-up.pdf
