JD Vance’s solution for child care costs? Make grandma watch the kids
How can working families manage the sky-high cost of child care? Republican vice presidential nominee JD Vance has a plan for that—make grandma and grandpa do it instead.
“So one of the ways that you might be able to relieve a little bit of pressure on people who are paying so much for day care is make it so that, you know, maybe like grandma [or] grandpa wants to help out a little bit more,” Vance said on Wednesday, during an interview with antisemite Charlie Kirk in Mesa, Arizona. “Or maybe there’s an aunt or uncle that wants to help out a little bit more. If that happens, you relieve some of the pressure on all the resources that we’re spending in day care.”
