Through the first-ever Care EO signed by President Biden last year, as well as through the American Rescue Plan and the CHIPS and Science Act, this Admin is making transformational investments in child care, home care, paid family and medical leave, and tax cuts for workers and families.

Finally!!! Yes! “Everyone is starting to realize: Our economy doesn’t work without care. Whether it’s for a new child or an older grandparent. “ - Secretary Xavier Becerra #TheCareEconomy #CareCantWait

“In-home family child care providers kept their doors open when the pandemic shut the world down. In good and bad times, children’s education starts with us. We are NOT babysitters, we are educators!” -Donise Keller

.Secretary Xavier Becerra “President Biden leadership has ensured more families can find and afford high-quality child care and that more early educators and home care workers have higher wages.”
#TheCareEconomy

.Neera Tanden🌻 spells it out: when it comes to winning care, “our biggest obstacles are cynicism and fatalism. We win when we have big ideas and a movement behind them. That movement is growing and we are closer than ever to winning” #TheCareEconomy

Happy 94th birthday, Dolores! When I was a young organizer, reading about Dolores Huerta’s life and work showed me what was possible. As one of America's great labor and civil rights icons, Dolores has devoted her entire life to advocating for marginalized communities. She knows…

.Rep. Katie Porter “When institutions like Congress perpetuate long standing social disparities for women, is there a term for that”

Me: “I believe it’s call patriarchy.”

Thank you Rep Porter for underscoring the structural sexism& racism of our underinvestment in care.

.Elizabeth Warren bringing 🔥🔥& underscoring we cant afford NOT to invest in care.

Jeff Bezos pays lower tax rate than teachers. Its time for wealthy & big corporations to pay fair share in taxes because #carecantwait !

“We are the richest country in the history of the world. We dont need tax breaks for billionaires and corporations, We need living wages and investments in healthcare, housing, and education, child care and home care” -Bernie Sanders underscoring why #carecantwait

.Bernie Sanders underscores that care is some of THE most important work in America. In a rational world, we would honor care workers as the heroes of our society. #CareCantWait #TheCareEconomy

Kicking off now #CareCantWait town hall on #TheCareEconomy with Sarah Jones interviewing Katherine Clark and U.S. Department of Labor Julie Su!

I agree with Fatima Goss Graves & the many other voices we heard today saying care can’t wait. And we can support investments in child care, home & community care, paid leave & the Child Tax Credit w/ good tax policy – like raising taxes on wealthy people & corporations.

Thank you President Biden for being our caregiver-in-chief and lifting up the important of care to our families and economy. #TheCareEconomy
