.POTUS signed a slate of executive orders aimed at making the cost of child and long-term care more affordable for families, an issue the progressive wing of his party has urged him to be more assertive about since entering office.

"[The pandemic] made even clearer just how hard it is for millions of working middle-class families to provide care for their families.

It requires skilled workers, yet care workers who are disproportionately women and women of color and immigrants are among the lowest paid in the country despite working in some of the most important and complex and demanding jobs," Domestic Policy Council Director Susan Rice told reporters Monday ahead of the signing.
