Governor Andrew M. Cuomo today announced a proposal to establish the New York State Cares + Baby2Baby Diaper Bank as part of the 2021 Women s Agenda. Through a partnership with Baby2Baby, a national nonprofit that provides basic essentials for children under the age of 18, 20 million donated diapers will be made available to New York s Emergency Feeding Programs for distribution to food banks throughout the state at no cost to New York families. COVID-19 has piled challenge after challenge onto hardworking New York families, including the ability to afford the products they need to care for their children,
Governor Cuomo said. Even before the pandemic, an astonishing one in three families struggled to cover the cost of diapers, and the pandemic has only exacerbated this issue. As we begin laying the groundwork to rebuild in a post-COVID world we must find ways to level the playing field and reduce the burdens this virus has placed on families

A Third Of U.S. Families Struggle To Afford Diapers. This Bill Aims To Change That.
The End Diaper Need Act of 2021, introduced by Sen. Tammy Duckworth, aims to create a better government safety net for families that can t afford diapers.
In the United States, 1 in 3 families struggle to provide enough diapers for their children ― often forcing them to choose between food and the vital child care item. Sometimes, it even keeps families from sending their kids to day care. Sen. Tammy Duckworth (D-Ill.) introduced a new bipartisan bill on Monday that aims to ensure every family can afford diapers.
Iowa Gov. Kim Reynolds signed a proclamation on Friday that effectively rolls back all public health measures enacted to mitigate the spread of the coronavirus.
Starting Sunday, there will be no limit on the number of people attending public gatherings within the state, masks will not be required and bars can reopen. The proclamation will stay in effect until March 7 at 11:59 p.m. CST.
To be sure, Reynolds also encouraged the state s residents and businesses to take reasonable public health measures consistent with guidance from the Iowa Department of Public Health.
