        this country is broadly anti-family so I expect we'll have "why should I subsidize your bad choices" takes in the comments before too long

        Interesting take ive never heard before. Can you define “broadly anti-family” and talk about how you came to that conclusion?

        Tis something I believe should qualify as a legitimate expense. It should be allowed.

        I don't agree. If the women don't have the support, I suggest they not run. It's more important for the child to have at least one parent that they can depend on. Just like the wife support the husband when he runs, the husband should support the wife.

        Dads are parents too. If men don’t need to expense child care for elections, why would women? Parenting is a team sport, public office is a sacrifice requiring contributions from both parents. Child care is not a “mom” issue, it’s a “parenting” issue.

        No, they like their non-politician counterparts should have to figure it out like anyone else. Quit trying to put politicians on a pedestal.

        When we provide childcare for regular parents we can revisit this topic.
