A new plan proposed by Sen. Elizabeth Warren hopes to lower childcare costs from $3,128 per month to only $200
As state lawmakers mull another run at ambitious plans to make child care affordable, U.S. Sen. Elizabeth Warren on Wednesday rolled out a plan to do the same nationwide.that is backed by Gov. Maura Healey, a family in Massachusetts with an infant and a two-year-old making $130,125 per year would pay no more than $10 per day, or $200 per month, down from the current average cost of $3,128 per month, according to Warren's office.
"A lack of child care is holding back our economy and keeping parents out of the workforce – it's giving lie to the notion that there's equal opportunity in our country," said Warren, who brought Eugénie Ouedraogo, a child care worker based in Taunton, as her guest to President Biden's State of the Union address Tuesday night."We can't build a future by shortchanging our babies and families.
The bill's cosponsors are Senate Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Committee Chair Bernie Sanders, Senate Finance Committee Chair Ron Wyden, and Sens. Edward Markey, Cory Booker, Alex Padilla, Sheldon Whitehouse, Tina Smith, and Richard Blumenthal.
