Hi Friend,
Sen. Tim Scott recently observed, “The beauty of the American dream is that families get to define it for themselves.”

Yet, as businesses begin reopening and children begin their summer break, many parents are trying to balance their family needs and work demands. And many more are struggling to find childcare options that work best for them, their children, and their pocketbooks.
Take the 1-Question Survey

Do you think government should be more involved in child care and parents’ childcare decisions?

Government regulations increase the cost and limit the supply of child care, driving smaller, less expensive, and more flexible providers out of existence. Between 2005 and 2017, the number of small, in-home childcare providers fell by half.

President Biden’s $1.8 trillion American Families Plan would require providers to follow government curricula and institute “inclusion” programs. It would also impose the kind of excessive standards that led to a $20,000-per-year price-tag for child care in D.C.

These requirements will make it harder for parents to find lower-cost, more flexible arrangements, such as a neighborhood provider, a church daycare or a parent co-op that aligns with their own needs and preferences. Nothing in this proposal expands child care and education choices beyond those sanctioned by politicians.

As a mother of 5 who depends heavily on workplace flexibility and family-friendly policies, I’d rather keep the government out of my arrangements. But I’d love to hear your thoughts on this issue.
