About this episode
U.S. birth and fertility rates have been falling for nearly two decades, and now, the government is rolling out new ideas to try to turn that around. In this episode, we explore what's behind the decline, how much public policy really shapes family decisions, and how the U.S. stacks up to other countries when it comes to child care, paid leave, and family support.
