Elizabeth Palley, Ph.D., professor in the , is a passionate advocate for overhauling our nation鈥檚 early child care policy. She is the co-author of In Our Hands: The Struggle for US Child Care Policy (NYU Press, 2014) and has written a number of articles and op-eds addressing the issue. In her most recent op-ed, published on the Fox News website, she dissects Donald J. Trump鈥檚 proposed child care plan.

鈥淒onald Trumps鈥� new child care plan has some great ideas, but it isn鈥檛 designed to solve our national child care problems: It is designed to help people like his daughter Ivanka,鈥� Dr. Palley wrote.

In her estimation, the plan provides moderate benefits to wealthy, traditional, two-parent families. There is little or no upside for poor families and homosexual couples.

鈥淲e don鈥檛 need to add to the patchwork of existing policies, we need a revolution and a total overhaul of the way we think about and address child care,鈥� Dr. Palley wrote. 鈥淩aising and educating children in the United States needs to be viewed as a public issue rather than a private concern.鈥�
