Bernie Sanders Unveils Universal Child Care Plan
------------------------------------------------

Senator Bernie Sanders has unveiled his plan to introduce free,
universal child care if elected president. Under the proposal, child
care would be available to all families regardless of income, start at
infancy and include free pre-kindergarten. The plan also would ensure
living wages to educators and provide access to higher education and
training for all caregivers. The $1.5 trillion proposal would be funded
through taxes on the wealthiest Americans.
