Kansas Ethics Panel Says Campaign Funds Can Pay for Child Care

A national expert on the federal government’s plan for reforming its support for child care says Kansas has a lot to be concerned about. “When you look at Kansas, you see that you’ve lost lots of children who were receiving child care assistance and that you’re paying very low rates to child care providers who serve families getting assistance,” said Helen Blank, director of child care and early learning at the National Women’s Law Center in Washington, D.C. “You don’t want that, and you don’t want that to be cut any further.”
