The potential for a family-friendly economy promises a significant boost to job availability and societal prosperity. This shift goes beyond mere language to become a powerful driving force for economic growth and societal well-being. The goal to create environments in which workers are not always stressed about issues such as childcare or eldercare is the hallmark of this reform. With more family-friendly benefits in place, around 5 million workers would be added to the U.S. workforce, as parents would be better equipped to balance work and family needs.

With this in mind, Sondra Goldschein, executive director of the Campaign for a Family Friendly Economy PAC, hopes to introduce policies that invest in childcare, make it an attractive career for providers, and provide affordable services for families. Goldschein stressed the organization’s goal to support families’ needs on a policy level, advocating for accessible and affordable childcare solutions that treat it as basic infrastructure.

However, the campaign’s work doesn’t stop at childcare solutions. It is currently running a $40 million independent electoral program supporting pro-family policies. The campaign supports policies such as paid family medical leave, affordable prescription drugs, accessible childcare, and elder care, reflecting a commitment to addressing caregiving as an economic issue. Goldschein emphasizes that both Democratic and Republican voters alike experience the impact of caregiving issues.

To make concrete changes, people need to rally together, show empathy, and vote for policies that make meaningful changes. Such an economic model, with its flexible work arrangements, affordable child care, and paid family leave, decreases stress and improves quality of life for workers, and it also boosts productivity and employee retention. This creates a win-win situation for businesses and families alike.
