Our nation’s child care providers played a critical role in our economic recovery by allowing working parents to return to their jobs. That is why the Ways & Means Committee fought to include the first permanent increase in child care funding since 2006 in the American Rescue Plan. This funding provided stability and created a path forward towards expanding access to safe, affordable child care. Thank you to our child care workforce!
Today, on #ChildCare #ProviderAppreciationDay, we thank child care workers for their strength & dedication throughout the pandemic. We appreciate all that you do to support parents & our economy. #ThankYouChildCare
