"One student said of the plan to enhance the child tax credit, “I think that’s great,” while another said it’s a “positive, definitely.”
"On eliminating the death tax, students expressed their support for the plan.
“ 'I think that’s definitely something we should be doing,” one student commented. “I’m in favor of that,” said another.
