[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]For a family of four making $85,000 a year, their out-of-pocket expenses for child care would be capped at 8 percent of their income, with anything above that being covered by the city’s subsidy. Families making less would have a lower cap, and families making more would have a higher cap — up to 10 percent of their income.[/quote] The price is [url="https://wamu.org/story/18/08/07/effort-rein-child-care-costs-d-c-set-expand-subsidies-cap-families-pay/"]estimated at $466 million over 10 years[/url]. Mayor Bowser has yet to sign it. Does it do enough to address the insane cost of child care in this city? [/quote] So that just means the lost money will be passed on by increasing the costs for a family making 90k? that is not the right approach[/quote]
