"David Blau has chosen seven economists to write chapters that review the emerging economic literature on the supply of child care, parental demand for care, child care cost and quality, and to discuss the implications of these analyses for public policy. The book succeeds in presenting that research in understandable terms to policy makers and serves economists as a useful review of the child care literature....provides an excellent case study of the value of economic analysis of public policy issues." —Arleen Leibowitz, Journal of Economic Literature "There is no doubt this is a timely book....The authors of this volume have succeeded in presenting the economic material in a nontechnical manner that makes this book an excellent introduction to the role of economics in public policy analysis, and specifically child care policy....the most comprehensive introduction currently available." —Cori Rattelman, Industrial and Labor Relations Review
Why has child care legislation developed along its present course? How did the political players influence lawmakers? What do the politics of child care legislation over the past thirty years indicate for the future? Based on more than one hundred interviews with legislators and executive branch officials, archival research, and secondary sources, this book looks at the politics behind child care legislation, rather than analyzing child care as a work and family issue. Identifying key junctures at which major child care bills were introduced and debated (1971, 1990, and 1996), Sally Cohen examines the politics surrounding each of these events and identifies the political structures and negotiations that evolved in the intervening years. In addition, Cohen looks at the impact the election of President Clinton has had on child care policymaking, and how child care legislation became part of other issues, including welfare reform, crime prevention, school readiness, and tax policy revisions.
Background material for a hearing on implementing regulations for two new child care programs is presented. The objective of the new programs is to provide care for children in low- or moderate-income families so that parents can work. The report was prepared by the Congressional Research Service (CRS) at the request of the Acting Chairman of the Subcommittee on Human Resources. This document includes the CRS background report; statutory language for the Title IV-A At-Risk Child Care Program and the Child Care and Development Block Grant Program, P.L.101-508; proposed regulations for each program; House of Representatives and Senate conference report provisions (H.R. 101-964) for the two child care programs; and selected comments received by the Department of Health and Human Services regarding its implementation regulations. Letters with comments are included from the House Committee on Education and Labor, Senate Committee on Labor and Human Resources, Senator Daniel Patrick Moynihan, House Committee on Ways and Means, National Governors' Association, American Public Welfare Association, and National Conference on State Legislatures. Comments cover parental choice, federalism, limited use of flexible block grant funds, and eligibility. (LB)
