I’d thought the obvious bipartisan @MittRomney compromise was to increase benefits while maintaining a work requirement–not cut the work requirement in half. Why do that (A: because libs want to eliminate it entirely, in stages). Where is Romney? https://t.co/tpyOfTrXAT

Libs have found way to water down the “work test” in the “Refundable Child Tax Credit”–work for one year, get two years of benefits. Goal is obviously to make work connection tenuous enough to eliminate it entirely and turn CTC into full-on dole for no-workers. [See last item] https://t.co/TIR0FbSmvx
