TELL CONGRESS: IT’S TIME TO INVEST IN CHILD CARE
The child care sector is in crisis; Congress must act now. In September, Congress allowed critical funding that was keeping the child care sector afloat to expire, threatening to exacerbate the long-standing issues of worker shortages, unfathomably high costs to families, and the closing of child care centers.
Now, Congress is considering funding to help child care centers stay open and families not lose their access to care, through both the annual appropriations process and an emergency funding request sent by President Biden.
It’s time to demand that Congress step up for American families by investing in child care funding. Add your name now to say you want Congress to protect, preserve, and expand child care funding by supporting this emergency funding request.
