Speaking to an audience at an early childhood education programme in New Castle, Delaware, the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee told the audience, "This is about easing the squeeze on working families who are raising their kids and caring for ageing loved ones ... it's about creating jobs with better pay and a career pathways for caregivers."
