Issue Position: Working Families

Issue Position

As the cost of living in Colorado increases, more working families are getting left behind. That's why Michael supports raising the minimum wage, because you shouldn't have to work two jobs to live above the poverty line.

Colorado is home to some of the most expensive child care in the country. To make sure working families can get ahead, Michael is fighting to expand and increase the Child and Dependent Care Tax Credit. Michael is also working to update and modernize the Child Tax Credit to adjust with inflation and to increase the value of the credit for families with young children.
