'We’re lifting women out of poverty, educating our children and lowering costs. This agenda is about who we are as a country and the values we represent.' From RepLawrence:
The president’s agenda will boost the compensation of childcare workers to at least $15 an hour and help close the gender pay gap. In addition to these major investments, the Build Back Better Framework will extend the expanded Child Tax Credit for . We’ve seen this policy in action already as it passed in the American Rescue Plan, and families have been receiving these monthly payments since July and will continue on through December.
As the co-chair of the Democratic Women’s Caucus and second vice chair of the Congressional Black Caucus, the needs and priorities of women, children, Black Americans and other communities of color are always on the top of my mind. So, I couldn’t agree more with President Biden when he calls the Build Back Better Framework a once-in-a-generation investment in the American people. It’s one that we haven’t seen since President Franklin Roosevelt’s New Deal nearly 90 years ago.
Nearing this historic change, I’d like to add to Abigail Adams’s quote and say, “Remember the ladies—and families too.” So as we Build Back Better, let’s Build Back Better with women and families front and center.
