Thousands of NYC families could lose child care vouchers without budget increase The child care voucher program is facing a perfect storm of budget threats, and may need nearly a billion dollars in extra funding this year to stay intact.

From ESCCC member Mansie:
“I fought three years to get out of that cycle of not having child care and to just think of being back in that place, it’s really, really not a good feeling at all,” she said.

A 15-foot inflated baby on the street of Manhattan. People gathered in front of the giant baby hold signs with messages like “Childcare Matters” & “Hochul: Fund Child Care.” Senator Jabari Brisport stands at the front of the crowd with a fist raised high in the air.

In case she missed it at the Capitol, Big Baby joined us at the Governor's Manhattan office to remind her to ✨fund child care.✨

Child care advocates plead New York to address funding shortage There appears to be significant movement on at least one of Gov. Kathy Hochul’s top demands: a bell-to-bell cell phone ban in schools.

Lawmakers, child care providers, parents, advocates, kids, and a giant inflatable baby assembled in the Capitol yesterday to plead with @govkathyhochulny.bsky.social @leaderasc.bsky.social @speakercarlheastie.bsky.social to #FundChildCareNY

If you have kids, care about families, or literally just want a functional economy: Let the Governor know you’re paying attention & expect her to meet her commitments by funding the child care workforce & vouchers. #FundChildCareNY (4/4)

🚨NY FAMILIES NEED HELP: Hear from parents who are at risk of losing child care assistance unless Governor Hochul adds up to $907M in the FY26 budget.
