AMAC Supports Credit for Caring Act

The economic and emotional strain of caring for a loved one is real and with more than 48 million Americans providing unpaid care, this bill provides a much-needed step towards easing that burden by providing a federal tax credit for working family caregivers.

Dear Congressman Carey,

On behalf of AMAC Action, the advocacy affiliate of the Association of Mature American Citizens – with over 2 million members nationwide, we are proud to offer our strong support for the Credit for Caring Act. Family caregivers are the unsung heroes of our communities, providing essential care to loved ones while often facing significant financial strain. This bill is a much-needed step towards easing that burden by providing a federal tax credit of up to $5,000 for eligible working family caregivers.

Seniors deserve the opportunity to age with dignity in their homes, surrounded by family, and this legislation will help make that possible by offsetting costs for home care aides, adult day care, transportation, and other necessary services. The economic and emotional strain on caregivers is real, and with more than 48 million Americans providing unpaid care, it is imperative that we take action. By passing the Credit for Caring Act, Congress will reaffirm its commitment to American families and the values of personal responsibility and strong communities that define our nation.
AMAC Action looks forward to helping you move this legislation forward in the 119th Congress.

Sincerely,

Andrew J. Mangione Jr.
Senior Vice President
AMAC Action
