Summary
House Resolution 180 is a non-binding proposal that outlines a vision for the federal government to significantly increase investment in the "care economy," which includes childcare, elder care, and support for people with disabilities. The resolution calls for creating millions of new jobs with higher wages and benefits for caregivers while making essential care services free or more affordable for all families.
