The most recent press release, "What They’re Saying: Murray-Kaine Child Care Reconciliation Plan Lowers Costs and Gets Parents Back to Work," was submitted on May 31.
The Committee on Health, Education, Labor and Pensions published 30 press releases the month before, marking a 13.3 percent increase for the current month.
The Committee has three subcommittees: children and families; employment and workplace safety; and primary health and retirement security.
Many of the prominent issues it deals with — the opioid crisis, skyrocketing drug and medical prices, college expenses — lend themselves to bipartisan cooperation.
