Why Now? CARE Act Proposals: Transforming Caregiver Support - Check out LinkedIn Poll!

Dear Valued Supporters of the Federal & Colorado CARE Act,

Our collective voice is growing louder every day! We are thrilled to announce that our petition, "Empower Working Caregivers: Enact Federal & Colorado CARE Act to Amend ADA & CADA," has now reached an incredible 599 signatures and garnered 543 dedicated supporters! This vital momentum reflects the urgent need for change and the unwavering commitment of each and every one of you. Your dedication is truly making a difference!

 
Introducing the "Caring for Change" Series: Why Now?

As we push for legislative action, it's crucial to explain why these proposals are so vital. That's why I urge you to read the very first post in our new "Caring for Change" series: "Why Now? The Transformative Power of the CARE Act Proposals."

This post explains the critical timing and unique, revenue-neutral design of the Federal and Colorado CARE Act proposals. It details how these acts aim to empower 32 million working caregivers – including those, like me, caring for a 93-year-old mother with end-stage dementia whose memory regresses to mere seconds – by providing essential protections, workplace accommodations, and incentives for employers.
