Any family making under $213, 000 would pay no more than 7% of their income on childcare
On Monday, Sen. Bob Menendez held a listening session with parents, providers and advocates, to better understand the challenges they face - like why child care centers have struggled to keep their workers and why nearly 100 licensed centers have closed since the pandemic. Menendez has introduced a bill that would expand investments in Pre-K to help centers hire and retain workers.
