Melinda Gates warns America's 'broken' caregiving system must be fixed in order to reopen the economy. Here's what the billionaire philanthropist says needs to be done.

from the Committee for Economic Development said that about 11.8 million of children under age five participated in regular, weekly care arrangements with a non-parental provider. Economists said these potential closures could prove catastrophic for the careers of American women.To address the looming problem, Gates is calling on Congress to make change, specifically by legislating more sick leave days and days to care for a loved one.

"My message to Washington is we have to look at all employees as caregivers. We are caring for those at home. And this hidden cost that our economy is built on the back of is finally visible to all of us," Gates said the interview with Politico. "I would say to business leaders, think about what you can do," said Gates, who suggested having more flexible work hours and considering on-site childcare.
