Urge Your Lawmakers to Invest in Child Care
Congress will soon decide on the annual funding for child care programs, and a challenging battle lies ahead to secure the increased funding needed to make America child care strong. It’s up to advocates to help lawmakers recognize that now is the time to seize the moment. Our nation relies on quality child care to support children’s healthy development, allow parents to work, and keep businesses running. We must unite to make #ChildCareStrong—because that makes everyone stronger.
