"The State of the Earned Income Tax Credit in Nashville: An Analysis of Economic Impacts and Geographic Distribution of the 'Working Poor' Tax Credit, TY 1997-2004."

The Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC) is not only a benefit for the working family claiming the credit. EITC also benefits the Nashville economy.
