Bonamici calls for increased investment in childcare

Rep. Suzanne Bonamici (D-Ore.) introduced a resolution that urges the House of Representatives to pass a "robust" legislation that would give all children and families access to high-quality, affordable child care and early education. The legislation should ensure that no family has to pay "more than 7 percent of their income" for child care and that families most in need will pay nothing, according to the resolution. It should also guarantee child care workers a "living wage," among other investment suggestions.
