Child care costs more than rent in all 50 states. And moms are feeling the pain.

This election season, we need candidates to prioritize bold, transformative solutions to fix our broken child care system.

Help us Get Child Care On The Record by taking action — either in-person or virtually, on your own or as part of a group of Motherhood members in your community.

Take Action

Taking action is easy. Write a letter to the editor, attend a community event or town hall, or get loud for child care on social media — and we’ve created simple resource guides to help you get started.
