Yes, @RepRichardNeal. Funds for #PaidLeaveforAll and affordable #childcare are key investments. Thank you for listening to the real experts, working women. @WaysMeansCmte
Care is not partisan. Everyone will need to give or receive care.

"Increasing access to #childcare and #paidleave are smart pro-family, pro-growth policies..." - @RepKevinBrady
#ThisAmericanLife: High risk pregnancy, postpartum illness, and –
** No paid leave
** No #childcare

America's mothers deserve better. America is the only developed country without #PaidLeaveforAll.

Thanks Joy Spencer @MomsRising for sharing your story @WaysMeansCmte
America's entrepreneurs and small businesses are struggling without #paidleave, this policy is:

👉🏽 Vital for recruiting employees
👉🏽 Vital for business owners needing to take time to care and receive care – affordably

We live in a country where certified early childhood educators do not have access to #paidleave - the truth is, most do not. #NowWatching @momsrising @PeopleforCSJ testify at the @WaysMeansCmte hearing on paid leave, #childcare & women
Women like Bethany Fauteux are returning to work 3 weeks after a c-section because they had to choose between keeping a roof over their heads vs healing and caring for their newborn. This is America without #paidleaveforall @WaysMeansCmte hearing on #paidleave, #childcare & women

Today the @WaysMeansCmte is holding a hearing on #paidleave, child care, and how the economy failed women. WATCH as working women from across the country give their testimony. We need #PaidLeaveForAll in the plan to #BuildBackBetter. Watch with us @ 12 pm.
The United States is the only industrialized nation with no maternity leave #PaidLeave - @RepRichardNeal
#Childcare workers care for the nation’s children while everyone is at work. Yet child care workers earn poverty wages in 40 states. Is it because it’s a “woman’s job”? It’s time to value and reward care workers like they are truly essential - fair wages and #paidleave
