You're reading an older Hightower Lowdown article. Jim's still writing — twice a week on Substack.
For decades, the American child care “system,” if one can call it that, has been in shambles thanks to its market-based approach and pressure on parents to make things work in impossible situations. But with the #BuildBackBetter bill, we have an opportunity to rescue American families and invest in the full-blown systems that will support our most important assets: our kids! Hightower will sit down with journalist Bryce Covert (NYTimes, The Nation, more) to talk about the policies and culture change we need to make it all a reality.
