A lawmaker named Rep. Chrissy Houlahan wants to help military spouses who are looking for jobs by paying for child care. She calls this idea a “GI Bill for child care.” This means they could get up to $15,000 per kid to help with child care costs while they search for work. She wants to help them because sometimes it’s hard to find a job when you can’t afford child care, and it’s hard to afford child care when you don’t have a job.
