The White House proposes actions to lower the cost of child care and strengthen a block grant program that helps low-come families access care.
the announcement in a call with reporters, emphasizing that child care is a"critical issue" for many families.
The plan would also ensure that nearly 200,000 child care providers participating in the block grant program would be paid on time, rather than retroactively, the White House said. During the call, Harris said parents should be able to apply for help online. She emphasized that families should not have to choose between providing high-quality care for their children and giving up their job or putting food on the table.
"My mother often said that but for Mrs. Shelton, she would never have been able to do the work that she did," Harris said of a woman who ran a child care center. "She would have never been able to contribute as she did to the fight to end breast cancer."
