Episode Description from the Publisher

Democrats are demanding that the Department of Agriculture secure new childcare options for federal employees.

But Democrats say USDA has not communicated any plans to offer an alternative to the employees who rely on those centers.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
