Senator Patty Murray (D-WA) and Congressman Bobby Scott (D-VA) reintroduced the Child Care for Working Families Act (CCWFA). Home Grown endorses this historic legislation that would make long overdue and much-needed investments in our nation’s child care system. We look forward to working with authors of legislation to ensure that the maximum number of home-based providers are able to engage in the system created by the bill and receive the subsidy and wage support they need.
