Madam Speaker, as communities across our country continue to battle COVID-19 and as school districts around the country continue to plan for virtual-only education, it is more important than ever for parents, healthcare professionals, essential workers, and our children to have access to quality, affordable childcare. This bill helps families by making the childcare tax credit fully refundable and offers new assistance to childcare facilities to help them weather the storm and continue providing the vital services our children need. Every Member of this House has heard from constituents who are grappling with this challenge. Americans need our help. Madam Speaker, I urge everyone to vote for this important bill.
