Warren to Introduce Universal Child Care Proposal

February 18, 2019 · 6:42 pm ET · Leave a Comment

Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) “will unveil a major new initiative on Tuesday designed to make sure every family can afford high-quality child care,” the HuffPost reports.

“The plan seeks to make access to child care universal… by offering federal funds to providers that offer care at their facilities on a sliding income scale.  No family would have to spend more than 7 percent of its household income on child care, no matter the number of kids. Families with incomes below twice the poverty line, which is roughly $50,000 a year for a family of four, would pay nothing.”
