John,
Millions of American families are struggling under the heavy burden of unaffordable childcare, which often forces low-income and middle-income families to choose between working and caring for their children.
The astronomical cost of childcare can reduce family income and serve as a barrier to future opportunities — and unfortunately, it disproportionately impacts families who are already struggling.
It’s time to find a solution. So many Americans need childcare — our federal government must introduce legislation to deal with this crisis. Sign on now if you agree.
It’s shameful that our leaders are missing a critical opportunity to invest in the next generation. Without strong, swift federal action, the childcare crisis will only worsen, impacting the wellbeing of children and families nationwide — and limiting their futures. We must advocate for laws that make childcare affordable for all, increase support for childcare providers, improve care quality and availability, and expand family leave policies to enable parents to balance work and family life.
Sign the petition: We need federal legislation to deal with the childcare crisis.
Thank you,
Democratic Values
