Mission & Goals

To rebuild stronger, we must invest in care.

Our care system was failing long before the pandemic – and it drove millions of women, especially women of color, out of the workforce. It’s time to fix what’s broken and support the caregivers who support us.

Together, we can fix it.

  1. The investment of $400 billion in Medicaid Home and Community-Based Services

    To create over one million quality, union protected direct care jobs, expanding access to home and community-based services to people with disabilities and aging adults, and support unpaid family caregivers so they can re-join the labor force.

  2. Passage of the Child Care for Working Families Act

    To ensure that no family pays more than 7% of their income for child care, invest in building an increased supply of high quality care, and increase workforce compensation and support, including a pathway to pay parity for early educators.

  3. Passage of Paid Family and Medical Leave Legislation

    To ensure all working people have access to at least 12 weeks of paid leave to bond with a new child, address a personal or family related illness, or handle needs that arise from a military deployment.
