Conservative Letter on CTC:

“In order to maintain its 2017 value, the credit should be increased to at least $2,500 (we applaud Vice President JD Vance’s suggestion of $5,000) and made permanent. To prevent similar loss of value in the future, it should also be indexed to inflation going forward.”
