The Issue | Republican Randell Niemeyer |
|---|---|---|
| Frank Mrvan voted to expand the Child Tax Credit. | The Expanded Child Tax Credit: Our community is full of families. In fact, 23 percent of our community’s residents are children. The expanded Child Tax Credit provided up to $3,600 per child, lifting millions of families out of poverty. | Randell Niemeyer will put his own interest ahead of putting money back into the pockets of the working families in Illinois. |
| Frank Mrvan supported the American Rescue Plan, which expanded benefits at a critical time to feed working families and expanded child nutrition programs in schools. | Food for Working Families: About 14 percent of people in this community struggle with being able to regularly access quality food for their families. | Randell Niemeyer will join his Republican colleagues and try to cut benefits like SNAP that feed working famlies. |
| Frank Mrvan supported the Inflation Reduction Act, which capped insulin costs to $35 a month for seniors on Medicare. | Making Insulin Cheaper: Our community struggles with higher than usual rates of diabetes. In fact, 13 percent of people here live with the condition. The Inflation Reduction Act capped the soaring price of insulin, a lifesaving medication for people with diabetes, at $35 a month. | Randell Niemeyer cannot be relied on to support reauthorizing measures like the Inflation Reduction Act that cap insulin and other health costs to save Americans millions, according to news sources. |
