Those are all massively expensive ideas, EARN it isnt. Just because these senators haven't been able to enact some of your other ideas doesn't mean they aren't serious about protecting children. At least some of the senators behind EARN it are in favor of expanding social welfare programs [0] - its just politically difficult to get traction on new laws with huge costs attached to them.

"In favor" for a Senator or Congressperson must mean: Propose it, speak about in in the Senate, speak about it in the media, support civic organizations campaigning for it, and don't be dependent on donors who want it not to happen.
