INEXPEDIENT TO LEGISLATE - We've got a GOOD chance next year, stay tuned!
This bill to establish a child care workforce fund had been a bipartisan bill, but surprisingly was voted down on the House floor with a partisan vote on March 21 - 163 Republicans to 162 Democrats. Take heart, seriously, because this outcome does not at all change our original plan to introduce dedicated funding source(s) in 2025 to support the retention and recruitment of the child care workforce so we do not solely depend on the hard-working parents they serve to cover any needed costs as is the case today. The supportive conversations on both sides of the aisle in both the House and the Senate this year around the policy to support the child care workforce and the need for federal, private or state funding give us great hope that we will succeed as planned next year. Please stay tuned and involved!!
