We need a national nursing home careers recruitment campaign that spans not just registered nurses and clinicians.

We will need millions of new direct care workers in a few years given our aging population.

Before disaster strikes, we must ensure that older Americans and people with disabilities are prepared.

Introducing Hon. Julia K. Munley, Nominee to be United States District Judge for the Middle District of Pennsylvania

It is time we make the smart economic choice for the country--to help our families, to invest in our families, to invest in caregivers--and strengthen this workforce by making a generational investment in home care services.

This Bill, the Better Care Better Jobs Bill, is an investment in better jobs for home care workers, better care for seniors and people with disabilities, and better support for family caregivers.

This investment is about services. It is also about turning poverty jobs into family supporting jobs.

The United States is in the midst right now of a caregiving crisis.

I hope to continue the same spirit of bipartisanship and advance an agenda to build both health and economic security for seniors.

This hearing today is one example of where the Federal Government can respond positively and constructively to the reality that families face in terms of their income instability.

The last 5 years what families have heard, working families have heard from Washington is unfortunately you are on your own.

This government has not helped them on the issue of health care.
