This is awesome. I suspect that for every one job the government would subsidize for a daycare professional, that we’d see three women enter the workforce. That’s a net of four people employed. I have no proof of this aside from my own experience watching parents struggle to find care for their kids. Even well off ones where I live. In Massachusetts! Good for you, New Mexico. I’m rooting for you. | ||

What's even better is this isn't costing New Mexico that much and it removes income restrictions for daycare. I think the total budget is something like $36 million extra with about $20 million of that being capex to build new facilities. |
