Rep. Michelle Steel (R-Calif.) introduced a bill June 14 that could help businesses invest in childcare programs in an effort to entice parents to return to work.

If passed, the legislation will provide startup funding for businesses to either open a childcare program, expand a current one, or form a partnership with outside providers.
