(a) Short title.—This Act may be cited as the “Two-Generation Economic Empowerment Act of 2020”.

(b) Table of contents.—The table of contents for this Act is as follows:

Sec. 1. Short title; table of contents.
Sec. 2. Findings; purposes.
Sec. 3. Definitions.

(a) Findings.—Congress finds the following:

(1) Almost half, or 40 percent, of children in the United States are from low-income families, and at least 60 percent of Black, Hispanic, and Native American children live in low-income families.

(2) Individuals caught in multigenerational poverty tend to lack the support needed to move beyond day-to-day situations, make long-term financial plans, and support the community around them.

(3) Twenty-five percent of children in the United States live in single-parent households, and 69 percent of children who live in such households are from low-income families.

(4) Many of the services and systems that are intended to help low-income families are fragmented, with approaches that address the needs of parents and children separately. These fragmented approaches often leave either the parent or the child behind and dim the family's chance at success.

(5) In 2015, the Department of Agriculture estimated that more than 9,200,000 individuals in the United States are from low-income families that reside more than 1 mile from a supermarket, and 2,100,000 of such individuals do not have access to a car.

(6) Healthy communities have a variety of components, including—

(A) safe, sustainable, accessible, and affordable transportation options that enable—

(i) children to commute to and from school safely; and

(ii) parents to seek work outside of their community;

(B) housing that is affordable, high-quality, socially integrated, and location-efficient;

(C) access to quality schools, parks and other recreational facilities, child care, libraries, financial services, and resources for other daily needs; and

(D) support for healthy behavioral development of children and adolescents.

(7) Economic research demonstrates—

(A) a 13-percent return on investment in high-quality early childhood programs for a child for each year of the child’s life; and

(B) that a college degree obtained by a parent is expected to double the parent's income.

(8) For families who have an annual income of $25,000, or less, and have young children, a $3,000 increase in such annual income during the years of early childhood for such children yields a 17-percent increase in earnings for those children when those children become adults.

(9) A successful 2-generation program will—

(A) improve family economic security by creating opportunities for, and addressing the needs of, parents and children simultaneously, which can be measured in outcomes for both parents and children;

(B) seek the input of parents who are served by the program and ensure their perspectives and experience inform the design of the program;

(C) break the cycle of multigenerational poverty and create a cycle of family prosperity; and

(D) foster and develop healthy communities.

(10) The return on investment in education for children and their parents is high. Early childhood education programs help children develop new skills and prepare them for grade school. A parent’s level of educational attainment is the best predictor of a child’s success. Higher education opens the door to a stable career with a family-sustaining wage, providing opportunities for families to break the cycle of multigenerational poverty.

(11) Work-family supports (such as paid family leave and access to high-quality child care), and economic supports (such as affordable housing, transportation, financial education and asset-building, tax credits, child care subsidies, student financial aid, health insurance, assistance under the temporary assistance for needy families program under part A of title IV of the Social Security Act (42 U.S.C. 601 et seq.), and food assistance), that encourage, support, and reward work provide a scaffold as parents pursue the skill-building activities and education that lead to better jobs and longer-term financial stability.

(12) Postsecondary education, such as community college associate degrees and credentials, and employment pathways, such as workforce development training and workforce partnerships, can build skills leading to high-demand jobs and opportunities for advancement that increase employment rates and income for parents.

(13) Social capital is a key success factor of the 2-generation approach and builds on the strength and resilience of families, bolstering the aspirations parents have for their children and for themselves. Family poverty is associated with a weaker social network of support. For individuals living in certain regions, the lack of community development contributes to a lack of economic mobility and a lack of multigenerational success.

(14) Physical and mental health have a major impact on the ability of a family to thrive. There is a well-documented correlation between poor health and poor family finances, with poor health causing poor family finances and poor family finances causing poor health. Improved physical health and health behaviors are associated with higher scores on standardized tests. There is a link between mothers providing a higher level of emotional support and positive outcomes in children, such as children demonstrating an improved social competence and engagement in schooling. Meanwhile, social isolation of children is associated with a higher rate of abuse and neglect of children.

(15) More than 30 States have actively mobilized around 2-generation approaches, with more States with plans under consideration to link and align social services, education, and job training to address the needs of 2 generations at the same time and give families the tools they need to succeed.

(b) Purpose.—The purpose of this Act is to improve family economic security by breaking the cycle of multigenerational poverty, and to create a cycle of family prosperity, including through developing 2-generation programs that involve initiatives of the Federal Government, States, local governments, and Tribal governments and initiatives of the private sector.
