📣 "A bill opposing the feds’ incursion should be just the start of a broader child care agenda."
That's right.
Lawmakers must act NOW to #FundChildcare and protect kids and caregivers from federal invasion. #mnleg

Reminder to add this to your schedule this week!
We're excited about these conversations and strategizing on how me move forward to #FundChildCare!

Join us on Th 4/2 for a 90-min brave space conversation for #childcare professionals, parents, advocates, and policy leaders! Together, we'll engage honestly with the past, reflect on our own experiences, and imagine a more equitable future: childcareforeveryfamily.org/events
#FundChildCare
States and localities across the country are pursuing models to make child care more affordable or to build supply, but robust public funding is needed to build a holistic child care system that meets the needs of families, children, and early educators. #FundChildCare tcf.org/content/repo...
While many state and local leaders are making universal child care central to their plans to lower the cost of living, the Trump admin’s attacks on child care funding are making it harder for families to find and afford child care. #FundChildCare www.americanprogress.org/article/trum...
Effective child care policy must make care more affordable for families; build the supply of diverse, high-quality child care options; and invest in early educators by offering fair wages, benefits, and opportunities to unionize. #FundChildCare tcf.org/content/repo...
Graphic has The Century Foundation logo at top. Underneath, the text reads, “States Leading On Child Care Affordability As Trump Administration Tries to Take Funds Away.” Below that are the headshots of the report authors, Lea Woods and Julie Kashen. At bottom, the text reads, “The Century Foundation’s new report lays out how seven states across the political spectrum are building toward effective child care policy. Learn more at TCF.org."
My new report with @kashenj.bsky.social shows how seven states—AZ, CT, IA, NM, NY, TX, and VT—are taking steps toward effective child care policy. #FundChildCare @tcfdotorg.bsky.social tcf.org/content/repo...

“If you’re looking at trying to reduce the cost to families, the solution lies in how you’re going to subsidize it — there’s not much to do to run down the cost of child care,” - @haileygibbs.bsky.social @americanprogress.bsky.social #FundChildCare www.nytimes.com/2026/03/05/u...

Not one more penny toward terrorizing our children & child care providers. #FundChildCare, not ICE.

Tomorrow is our Day Without Childcare, and this is indeed the #1 reason we need to #FundChildCare. It benefits ALL of us! #DayWithoutChildCare #mnleg
Kicking off #DayWithoutChildCare tomorrow with this column from Jessi Antilla.
She's got it absolutely right - "Child care is not a Republican issue. It is not a Democratic issue. It is not an independent issue.
It is an economic necessity."
#FundChildCare
Hey Bemidji! Join us for our Day Without Childcare on Monday! #FundChildCare #DayWithoutChildCare #mnleg
🔉 At the #MNLeg, Rep Zeleznikar (R) looked to Norway for childcare ideas. We love it!
But Rep Sencer-Mura (DFL) is right. If we want a childcare system like Norway’s, we have to fund it like Norway.
It’s time to #FundChildcare in Minnesota — so families, kids, & early educators can thrive. 🧸💛
When Republicans say the well is dry for #childcare funding but find $75 billion for ICE, they are showing us their priorities. We demand a shift: invest in our communities and our children, not in a surveillance state that is tearing our communities apart.
#FundChildCare #SOTU
Why are we having a "Day Without Childcare" in just a week from now? Because our childcare system cannot continue without sustained public funding. #FundChildCare
We're two weeks away from Minnesota's "Day Without Childcare." Join us to demand that Minnesota fully funds childcare! #FundChildCare
Anyone else see a trend here? Some elected officials will tell you that this is exactly what they want- parents at home. They seem to miss the part where many parents need to work multiple jobs to even make ends meet (because we don't pay people living wages). Do the math. #FundChildCare
Child care providers, parents, and advocates are packing the halls of Congress this morning to remind Republicans that the real crisis facing our sector is a lack of funding.
Rather than manufacturing scandals & funding freezes, lawmakers should be working to #FundChildCare!
Continuing our efforts to help you all visualize WHY childcare is vital to our communities and needs to be treated as the public good that it is. Whole communities come to a halt without it. #FundChildCare
I've joined state lawmakers from around the country in calling for an end to Trump’s attacks on child care. When it comes to child care, members of Congress should listen to their constituents, not right-wing influencers. #FundChildCare tinyurl.com/StateLegislatorsLetter
