As the son of a single mom, and the father of a household with two working parents, President Obama understands firsthand the many struggles and great potential of American families.
Today, the President took a bold step to support children and working families by proposing to expand access to high quality child care for low-income families. In partnership with states, this investment will help approximately 1.15 million additional young children by 2025 and support States’ efforts to build the supply of quality care available to low income families. This proposal, together with the President’s proposed expansion of the child care tax credit for middle class families, will help families make ends meet when they are faced with the high cost of child care. And it will mean that lower-income families with young children will be guaranteed child care when parents go to work.
