Child care makes all other work possible. But especially for BIPOC mothers and working families, Oregon’s child care system isn’t working. We must invest in our state’s child care infrastructure this legislative session, starting with the passage of HB 3073 #ChildCareforOR #orleg
Great op-ed by Reps. @DreaValderrama, @KhanhPhamForOR and Alonso Leon on House Bill 3073:
📌"Child care is unrecognized backbone of our economy" #orleg #orpol

We celebrate Juneteenth by continuing the fight to dismantle white supremacy in all its forms.

On this day in 1865 - two years after the passage of the Emancipation Proclamation - more than 250,000 enslaved Black people in Texas were finally told that they were free.
#Juneteenth honors Black liberation and marks our country’s true independence day.

American women outnumbered men in the labor market in February 2020. Then COVID hit. Over 2 million women dropped out of the workforce, compared with 1.7 million men.
The big picture: The pandemic erased decades of women's workplace progress.

For millions of working women, the coronavirus pandemic has delivered a rare and ruinous setback. Job losses, childcare closings and remote schooling are not just pushing women out of jobs they held, but also preventing many from seeking new ones.
