The "Working Families Task Force Act of 2025" mandates the establishment of an Interagency National Task Force on Working Families within 90 days of enactment. Chaired by the Secretary of Labor and including representatives from nine federal agencies, this Task Force is charged with examining the multifaceted challenges confronting working families across the nation. Its primary purpose is to develop comprehensive recommendations aimed at enhancing their standard of living and overall quality of life. The Task Force's duties encompass identifying and evaluating key factors such as affordability challenges, access to quality jobs, affordable childcare, healthcare, housing, and educational opportunities. It will also assess the impact of macroeconomic conditions and the effectiveness of existing federal policies. Crucially, the Task Force must develop legislative and regulatory policy recommendations, consulting with a wide range of external stakeholders and experts. A detailed report of its findings and recommendations, including meeting minutes and consulted experts, must be submitted to appropriate congressional committees and made publicly available within 180 days.
