Schumer spoke at a press conference in support of the reintroduction of the Childcare for Working Families Act. This transformative<span> bill supports universal preschool, ensures working families have access to crucial programs and guarantees that childcare workers get the pay they deserve. Right now in New York, infant care for one child costs up to 22% of a family's median income, and it has reached such a breaking point that childcare can cost more than in-state college tuition. </span>Senator Schumer said \"The bottom line is that no one who has a job as vital as looking after our children should be paid poverty wages. Working families deserve access to affordable and high quality care. We Democrats are committed to big, bold solutions. And as Majority Leader, I can promise you that Democrats will continue to fight for America's children and families and we're going to fight until we win.\"</p>"}}
