Agenda setting and Utah politics : the case of day care

Day care has received increased attention recently. Bills on day care reform are being introduced nationally ("Need for Chlid Day Care," 1988) and reports on the need for day care in Utah are being filed locally (Utah Department of Social services, 1987). For employees it may be the benefit of the eighties. For those in poverty, it may be a key avenue toward self-sufficiency. The problem in Utah ts getting day care addressed by the state legislature.
