Comment on Democrats need an audacious child-care plan

Democrats need an audacious child-care plan

It looks like Democrats might pull out the stops in 2020. As Paul Waldman recently observed, they're increasingly approaching politics the same way the GOP does: Instead of moderating their positions to appear more "electable" to the other side, they're rolling out big ambitious ideas to excite their base. There's a renewed push towards Medicare for all, and Democrats are flirting with a federal job guarantee to eliminate unemployment entirely. If the Democrats' theme in 2020 will be "thinking big," allow me to add one other item to the list: child care. Staying at home with young children or finding someone to do it for you remains an enormous strain on family budgets.
