Schumer on What Dems Will Run on: Broadband in Every Rural Home, Child Care for All

EXCERPT:

SCHUMER: "Two, rural broadband. Franklin Roosevelt said in the 30s that every rural home should get electricity, it was a necessity, and he set up the REA. We Democrats believe that every rural home should have broadband and we are endeavoring to do that and there’s an initial amount of money to start doing that in the country. And third, child care. These days , with so many families where both parents work or single-parent families, it's very hard to work. What you do with the kids? You want good childcare for your children. And we’ve more than doubled the amount that went into the bipartisan Childcare Act that was passed by Lamar Alexander, one of Mitch's good friends and my good friends in the Senate, a Tennessee Republican, and Patty Murray, Democrat of Washington. That’s what we have to focus like a laser on."
