Nationwide affordable, high-quality child care is critical not only for every parent and young child, but for our nation’s overall health, wellbeing and economic stability as well.
By passing a bold, comprehensive early-learning and child care plan, we will:
- Ensure affordable, high-quality child care for every child in our country;
- Help ease the financial burden on our working families whose finances are already stretched thin, many of whom are living paycheck to paycheck;
- Raise the quality of care by providing increased training and a living-wage for thousands of child care professionals across the country;
- Provide our preschool-aged children with a strong educational foundation helping them to succeed in school.
It’s time to demand Congress step up for working families. Sign the petition to urge Congress to pass a comprehensive child care bill.
