We need your help to protect child care services!
Working families across the country voted to get our economy back on track. We voted to create jobs, to invest in the future, and to support early education for our children. Instead of talking about solutions, Congress has passed cuts to child care and other vital services that would negatively impact our families. Here in California, over $22 million would be reduced from child care services after January 1, 2013, when the cuts are set to take effect. Families would lose access to child care, making it harder for parents to work, provide for our families and contribute to the economy.
What can you do?
1. Are you a parent who relies on child care services?
- SIGN HERE: Tell Congress how these cuts would affect your family!
2. Do you know others who may be affected (e.g. parents of children you care for)?
- Forward this link to them AND ask them to sign this petition! Congress needs to hear why child care is essential to their lives and their careers.
Working together we can protect the services that ALL our families need.
