Issue Position

Date: Jan. 1, 2018
Issues: Employment and Affirmative Action Family

With Mia's leadership, the state legislature tackled the "donut hole" of childcare, where middle class families make too much to qualify for state subsidized care, but not enough to afford local childcare options. HB 2367 establishes a new task force to bring businesses, children's advocates, parents, and lawmakers to the table to find new options to help lower cost and increase access. HB 2396 creates a pilot program to incentivize small businesses.
