National report finds Wisconsin parents stand to lose $232 million in wages if the state fails to fund the Childcare Counts program.
It's estimated that more than 2,000 childcare centers serving 87,000 kids would have to close, pushing parents--mostly mothers if we're being honest--back out of the workforce.
Wisconsin already has a childcare shortage affecting workforce participation. This would be a disaster.
