Recognizing that the United States needs to support and strengthen mothers in the workforce by investing in the Mom Economy.

HRES 605 is a non-binding resolution recognizing the need to support mothers in the workforce through investments in the "Mom Economy." It highlights how mothers - especially mothers of color - face systemic barriers like childcare costs, wage gaps, and lack of paid leave, which contribute to their economic disengagement. The resolution calls for concrete policy changes, including expanding paid family leave, investing in affordable childcare, strengthening the child tax credit, and improving workplace protections for caregivers. It directly addresses mothers and families who rely on maternal earnings, emphasizing that supporting them would boost economic productivity and reduce poverty.
