GET ME REWRITE: Wisconsin GOP leadership has no plan to address child care crisis

 
Headline: Wisconsin State Journal, 8/27/2023
Republicans who support Wisconsin’s strict and outdated ban on abortion may see the sales tax exemption on baby products as a way to show support for families with newborns. 
Their tax-exemption bill also is being reintroduced just as the governor seeks legislative action to address the looming end to federal subsidies for child care providers. 
But saving $5 a month on $100 in diapers, while helpful, isn’t going to make or break a family budget.What 
Wisconsin parents really need — especially mothers and fathers with modest incomes — is better access to quality, affordable child care near their homes or jobs[emphasis added]
