    Parents go to work every day & are worried about their kids being taken care of—& the cost of child care shouldn't be a barrier. I introduced the Child Care for Working Families Act because this is a national crisis.

        Thank you @PattyMurray . The cost of child care keeps some folks out of the job market all together! Please make policy for working families- we’re the majority of 🇺🇸! 👏❤️💪🏻

        When women began to go to work in the last century the single wage earner lost "his" bargaining power with employers who had no incentive to pay both man & wife the same wage. To this day employers get 2 workers for what they used to pay 1 worker. Change THAT... you change it all

        Except this entirely ignores the root problem that our kids are growing up without proper brain development/social development due to lack of parenting & employers still get 2 workers for the price of one which keeps parents from raising their kids. Better pay fixes everything.

        This is an urgent issue. I am a grandmother. I have taken care of my twin 4 1/2 yr old grandchildren for nearly 3 yrs because of the high cost of child care (not that I did not love every day with them). Now they are pre-K @ nearly $1,500/month each for full time care.

        and you would think that couples would be able to use a calculator & basic math skills to realize what they are REALLY making AFTER all expenses so that they work out a way to actually parent their kids instead of making $3 per hour extra & expecting strangers to socialize kids

        1. Either you're blind as a bat or you just can't count... & mommy didn't teach you the difference between boys, girls & babies. 2. Why doesn't DAD stay home? National statistics show women are the main bread winners. Women have been doing 1/2 your gender role for generations.

        How are you planning on paying for this? Higher taxes for all or is this one of those free things that Democrats offer?

        You should not live beyond your means to include the conscious decision of having a child. Your decisions should not be my burden.

        Our government isnt here to pay for child care. Not all of us have children. Having children is a choice.

        Why? Because feminism has destroyed the American family unit, that's why.
