*What's New:*
Last week I
cosponsored a bill to provide assistance for Montana child care providers to
help them offer critical, affordable services for working parents
during the COVID-19 outbreak.
To learn more on what was included in the
bill, click *HERE [link 1]*.
*Why It Matters: *
During the ongoing
COVID-19 pandemic, Montana's working moms and dads need access to
affordable child care services so they can work to put food on the
table.
My bill provides:
-
Critical resources to help child care providers
reopen and stay open
-
Provides 9-month financial assistance for
providers to open, welcome children safely, and ensure a robust child
care sector is available for families
-
Allows states to design
state-specific plans to support child care centers, operators, providers in
their state
-
Sends funds to child care providers more quickly
without administrative red tape
-
Safe environments for children
-
Requires all providers receiving assistance to follow all state and local
health and safety guidelines
-
Requires states to ensure a diverse
field of child care setting options for parents, including center-based,
family child care, and faith-based options
*What's Next: *
I will
continue pushing to ensure Montana's working families have the support
they need during these challenging times. I will work with my Senate
colleagues to get this bill across the finish
line.
