The Care Economy & Affordability, Saving IDEA, Vaccine Disinformation, Preventing a Health Care Crisis
On the radio show this week, we dive into the economic benefits of investing in the care economy —including child care, paid family & medical leave, and aging & disability care — and how these policies boost productivity, reduce stress, and make life more affordable. We hear about the need to protect public education, particularly the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA), from political attacks. We cover where parents can find trustworthy information on vaccines, and why your personal story is so important to defeating disinformation. Finally, we discuss the impending health care crises if enhanced ACA subsidies expire, particularly affecting parents and children in states that did not expand Medicaid.    SPECIAL GUESTS: Julie Kashen, The Century Foundation, @tcfdotorg, @tcfdotorg.bsky.social; Moira Kaleida, Alliance to Reclaim Our Schools, @reclaimourschls;  Tina Sherman, MomsRising, MamásConPoder, @MomsRising, @MamasConPoder, @momsrising.org, @mamasconpoder.org; Jennifer Haley, Urban Institute, @Urban_Inst, @urbaninstitute.bsky.social
