EITC Programs in Rural Communities Report
Posted by Carolyn Spohrer at 2:52 PM Press Releases
The Carsey Institute, using Brookings/IRS data, has released a report in support of EITC Programs in rural communities. The report, "EITC is Vital for Working-Poor Families in Rural America" notes that "The EITC is especially important to rural families throughout the United States. Among poor and near-poor families, those in rural areas are more likely to be working, and they are more likely to be working in low-wage jobs."
