Abstract

He cites figures that suggest child poverty costs the U.S. up to $1.1 trillion annually in loss of productivity, and increased crime and health care costs. The number of children living in poverty in the U.S. more than doubled in 2022, according to new figures released by the U.S. Census Bureau on Sept. 12, the biggest increase since it began using its current method to count them.
