Bill Calls on Employers to Provide Childcare
Two competing childcare bills in the state House claim to have a solution to the childcare crisis. This week, we spoke to each of the bill's sponsors. Rep. Alicia Rule's [D-Blaine] HB 1716 would establish a Business and Occupation tax rebate for employers who provide childcare assistance to employees. It has bi-partisan support, but also a number of critics. HB 2322 from Rep. Tana Senn [D-Mercer Island], would require employers who receive preferential tax incentives from the state to provide childcare on-site or pay at least 25-percent of childcare costs for an employee.

How the 'Clean Plate Club' Ruined Us All
In an effort to keep your health-related New Year resolutions in focus, we've been interviewing experts on health topics throughout the month of January. So far this month, we've learned that reducing your salt intake by one teaspoon a day can have the same health-effects as taking a daily high blood pressure medication. We were also taught how to reflect on how foods make you feel after you eat them, especially if we're noticing the positive effects of those foods, can help us reset our focus on foods that work for our energy levels. This week, Dave and I interviewed Dr. Judson Brewer, author of The Hunger Habit.
