这项横断面研究评估了2021年12月停止每月儿童税收抵免支付是否与美国低收入有子女家庭随后食物不足的变化有关。2021年12月停止每月儿童税收抵免预付款是否与美国低收入家庭食物不足的变化有关？在这项基于人口的横断面研究中，使用了美国人口普查局对美国家庭进行的一项经常性在线调查的数据，在儿童收入低于25000美元/年的家庭中，停止每月提前支付儿童税收抵免与食物不足增加约6.2个百分点有关。每月提前支付的儿童税收抵免可能是有孩子的低收入美国家庭食物不足的缓冲。2021年7月至12月，扩大的儿童税收抵免为许多有孩子的美国家庭提供每月预付款，并与减少食物不足有关。关于停止每月付款的影响所知甚少。评估每月儿童税收抵免支付的停止是否与美国低收入有子女家庭的食物不足的后续变化有关。这项以人口为基础的横断面研究使用了美国人口普查局于2021年1月至2022年3月对美国家庭进行的定期在线调查“家庭脉搏调查”的数据。这项研究估计了年收入低于50000美元，低于35000美元和低于25000美元的家庭的差异回归模型，调整了人口特征和居住状态。年收入低于50 000美元的家庭的估计样本包括114 705份答复，代表27 342 296个家庭的加权人口规模。每月收到儿童税收抵免付款，根据在2021年7月至12月的每月付款期间与儿童一起生活的家庭来衡量。家庭食物不足，由一名答复者表示，在过去7天里，家庭中有时或经常没有足够的食物来衡量。在114705个年收入低于5万美元的家庭中，受访者主要是女性（57%）;白色（71%）;不是西班牙裔、拉丁裔或西班牙裔（79%）;受过高中或同等教育（38%）;未婚（70%）。在停止每月儿童税收抵免支付后，美国有孩子的家庭的食物不足增加了3.5个百分点（95%置信区间，1.4-5.7个百分点）年收入低于50 000美元的家庭，4.9个百分点（95% CI，2.6-7.3个百分点）的家庭收入低于35 000美元/年，6.2个百分点（95% CI，3.3-9.3个百分点）的家庭收入低于25 000美元/年。这些估计数表明，年收入低于50 000美元的家庭中粮食不足的相对增加率约为16.7%，年收入低于35 000美元的家庭为20.8%，年收入低于25 000美元的家庭为23.2%。在这项以人口为基础的横断面研究中，2021年12月停止每月儿童税收抵免与低收入家庭中家庭粮食不足的统计学显著增加有关，最低收入家庭的增幅最大。
This cross-sectional study assesses whether the discontinuation of monthly Child Tax Credit payments in December 2021 was associated with subsequent changes in food insufficiency among lower-income US households with children. Was the discontinuation of advance monthly Child Tax Credit payments in December 2021 associated with changes in food insufficiency among lower-income US households? In this population-based cross-sectional study using data from a recurring online survey of US households conducted by the US Census Bureau, discontinuation of advance monthly Child Tax Credit payments was associated with an increase in food insufficiency of approximately 6.2 percentage points among households with children making less than $25 000/y. Advance monthly Child Tax Credit payments may have served as a buffer against food insufficiency among lower-income US households with children. The 2021 expanded Child Tax Credit provided advance monthly payments to many US families with children from July through December 2021 and was associated with a reduction in food insufficiency. Less is known about the effect of the discontinuation of monthly payments. To assess whether the discontinuation of monthly Child Tax Credit payments was associated with subsequent changes in food insufficiency among lower-income US households with children. This population-based cross-sectional study used data from the Household Pulse Survey, a recurring online survey of US households conducted by the US Census Bureau, from January 2021 to March 2022. This study estimated difference-in-differences regression models for households making less than $50 000, less than $35 000, and less than $25 000 annually, adjusting for demographic characteristics and state of residence. The estimation sample of households making less than $50 000/y included 114 705 responses, representing a weighted population size of 27 342 296 households. Receipt of monthly Child Tax Credit payments, as measured by living in a household with children during the period of monthly payments from July through December 2021. Household food insufficiency, as measured by a respondent indicating that there was sometimes or often not enough food to eat in the household in the previous 7 days. Among 114 705 households making less than $50 000/y, respondents were predominantly female (57%); White (71%); not of Hispanic, Latino, or Spanish origin (79%); had high school or equivalent education (38%); and were unmarried (70%). Following the discontinuation of monthly Child Tax Credit payments, food insufficiency in US households with children increased by 3.5 percentage points (95% CI, 1.4-5.7 percentage points) among households making less than $50 000/y, 4.9 percentage points (95% CI, 2.6-7.3 percentage points) among households making less than $35 000/y, and 6.2 percentage points (95% CI, 3.3-9.3 percentage points) among households making less than $25 000/y. These estimates represent a relative increase in food insufficiency of approximately 16.7% among households making less than $50 000/y, 20.8% among households making less than $35 000/y, and 23.2% among households making less than $25 000/y. In this population-based cross-sectional study, discontinuation of monthly Child Tax Credit payments in December 2021 was associated with a statistically significant increase in household food insufficiency among lower-income households, with the greatest increase occurring in the lowest-income households.
