Rep. Gwen Moore, a longstanding member of the U.S. Congress representing Wisconsin’s 4th district, recently shared her views on social media regarding tax reform and the Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC). Moore, who has been serving in Congress since 2005 after replacing Jerry Kleczka, took to Twitter to discuss legislative efforts aimed at modernizing and expanding this critical financial support for workers.

On March 26, 2025, Rep. Gwen Moore announced her collaboration with Rep. Judy Chu and other advocates in reintroducing the Worker Relief and Credit Reform Act. In her tweet, she emphasized the need for a tax code that benefits workers rather than providing “more tax giveaways to the wealthiest few.” “Today I was joined by @RepJudyChu & amazing advocates to reintroduce the Worker Relief and Credit Reform Act, which would modernize and expand the EITC.”

Later that day, Moore highlighted the historical significance of the EITC over its fifty-year existence. She noted its role as a lifeline for many Americans by lifting millions out of poverty and rewarding hard work. Her commitment to protecting and expanding this credit is rooted in ensuring that the tax code serves those striving for a better life rather than just benefiting “the wealthy few.” “For half a century, the EITC has been a lifeline for hardworking Americans.”
