Texas Rep. Joaquin Castro, who joined Gomez in forming the caucus, said men have a role to play in supporting policies that help working families. "As a father to three young children, I'm looking forward to using this caucus to help achieve real solutions that have eluded us in the past." While baby Hodge missed the press conference, because he was back home in Los Angeles with his mom, Gomez tells NPR he and his wife are trying to make parenting work"the best we can, like other working parents." Gomez explained his family's day care situation, saying they have a caregiver coming three days a week, but they are still looking for help to cover the other two days of the workweek.
When you say 'Dads' do you mean both men and women?
Wouldn't it be such a cool novel idea if some tiny section of some party gave a flyin fk about people who cannot afford children and were responsible enough to not have any 🤯
No! And we should stop penalizing single people with no children! If married people with kids want more time off and tax breaks, then so do single people without kids.
Hmmm…when did republicans become so anti-family? 🤔
Hope he doesn’t bring his kids to work anymore, seeing as they would be exposed to second-hand smoke.
We Feminists must defeat family leave. Cuz it will lead to moms becoming attached to their kids. Then they will leave the workforce or go part time. Which will lead to a wage gap. And we all know what that means.
What is a dad? Is this multi gendered?
If a Republican did this NPR would accuse him of using his child as a political prop.
How about just abolishing the current Tax code, the IRS & this tax welfare which is simply reallocation of funds from the wealthy to the poor. It's theft.
Never go anywhere and it's not meant to go anywhere. It's meant to embarrass the party that reminds democrats that america can't afford anymore of their vote buying schemes.
Social Security is insolvent before 2035, maybe they should fix that before finding more ways to bankrupt the system.
*none of which will help fathers.
Will they be fighting for their daughters to have a fair chance in girls (and women’s ) sports? To get scholarships by excelling in the sports of their biological sex? Asking for millions of biologically female athletes.
Real dads don't confiscate property from their neighbors - they support their children themselves
Paternity leave yeah?
Paid family leave? That's up to your employer.
Your local municipal utility company doesn’t carry as much water as NPR does for the DNC.
Are those babies weaponized
Good for them!
Are they going to push for fair sentencing laws? Are they going to advocate for more men’s shelters? Are they going to push for fair parenting laws for fathers? Are they going to abolish the draft or include women in the draft?
Dads Caucus? I wonder how many owe their kids child support? About that, child support $ should go into an escrow type account & every cent should be spent only for the child. Receipts kept! Not because Mom/Dad want a new phone, get nails done, go out, new tv, new car, etc🙄🙄
By defending the child tax credit, they admit that income taxes are too high and cause a burden to American families.
They couldn't have done that when they had the majority? They're simply props.

Paternal (and Maternal) leave is an investment in our future
Why not ‘parent’ caucus? Why would you exclude women?
Democrats and NPR promote Fetusectomy (or abortion, as it is more popularly known). It is amusing that Democrats then promote money for the Fetuses that escape Fetusectomy and make it through 😆🤣😂
