Joe Biden’s goal as the presumptive Democratic nominee to challenge President Donald Trump is twofold: to take better care of caregivers, which in turn would free other members of families to enter or return to the workforce.
Former Vice President Joe Biden proposed Tuesday to spend $775 billion over the next decade to expand and improve caregiving for children, the elderly and people with disabilities while creating 3 million new jobs as part of his economic recovery plans.
“This is about easing the squeeze on working families," Biden said at the Colonial Early Education Program at Colwyck Center in New Castle, Delaware. “We’re in a child care emergency. And it didn’t need to be this way." The same day as Biden's speech, the American Health Care Association and the National Center for Assisted Living called on Congress to provide another $100 billion for nursing homes and assisted-living communities to deal with the coronavirus pandemic. Care facilities for the elderly have become hot spots for the virus throughout the pandemic.
