···6.·作为一九三五年罗斯福新政一部分的《国家劳资关系法案》（National Labor Relations Act），为了保障劳工的权益，准许私领域的雇员组成工会。然而家务工作者却被排除在外（主要原因基本上可确定为种族歧视）。南方的立法者更坚持要将当时多由黑人担任的农场工作者、家务工作者，排除在罗斯福总统于一九三八年所提出的《公平劳动标准法》（Fair Labor Standards Act）外。非正式的员工则无法获得社会福利（如最低薪资保障）或失业救济金。八十年后，就全美的状况来看，事情确实有了改变。举例来说，二○一○年，纽约颁布了《家事劳工权利法案》（Domestic Worker's Bill of Rights），确立了每日工作八小时和其他保障措施。
···7.·如同蒲艾真在某次访谈中所提及的，她正在提倡一场「照顾工作」的变革，「将这个经常不被重视且遭受轻视、而薪水卑屈的工作，转变成一个拥有职业发展前景的专业。」蒲艾真也指出，照顾工作的需求成长速度是其他常见工作的五倍。照顾这门职业是支撑起美国经济生产力的骨干，然而非正式的劳动工作却没能像上一世纪的工厂工作那样，改善这些从业者的情况。
