This is a step in the right direction, as childcare is a huge barrier for many families!

[Axios @axios]

Chip makers who want access to billions of dollars in new federal funding will first have to figure out how workers will access affordable child care, per a new requirement from the Commerce Department.

[SWEDA @SWEDA_KY]

@AVMcNeill @reposborne @KYHouseGOP @BIPPS How many barrels per year are these small distillers producing? The barrel tax amounts to about $1.50 per barrel, per year. That’s a huge barrier?

[SWEDA @SWEDA_KY]

What a joke, sponsor @reposborne calling the barrel tax a job killer. Yeah, with over $2 billion of investment and 700 new jobs announced in 2022 alone. At least have some facts to back up your stance!

[Lexington Herald-Leader @heraldleader]

“Bourbon’s making record profits, and they want all the tax breaks,” said one judge-executive. Counties that produce bourbon say a proposed bourbon barrel tax break would decimate their budgets. https://t.co/8sGASrG5Q4

This will help address one of the largest barriers to entering the workforce: affordable & available childcare 👏👏
The Bottom Line: Legislation to help employers provide child care assistance goes to governor https://t.co/DMoEtH4RMZ

This piece was very well done by @60Minutes and @BillWhitakerCBS looking at the changing workforce dynamic from several different perspectives! Things are changing for employees and employers better take notice and adapt.
