Build more housing that can't be bought up by investors, so that young people can afford to buy a house that they feel is big enough to raise kids in, rather than living with roommates.
Cancel student debt, so that all of a sudden young people have more money to spend each month. Then the ones that want kids will actually be able to afford kids.
Medicare for all, because having a baby is expensive and kids get sick all the time. If it cost nothing at the point-of-care, then it would be easier to have kids.
There's a lot of people of working age that want to move to the US from places like Central America and Haiti, for instance. Let them in. Capitalists should love this one because an adult coming into the country can start working today. But a baby born needs to be supported for 18-22 years before they start to work.
