Dear Member of Congress,
The U.S. budget is a reflection of the country’s priorities and values. We ask that you build on President Biden’s FY2025 budget proposal and vote to support full and robust funding of programs that boost our children, families, businesses, and economy including:
- Care economy programs, including $500 billion for paid family and medical leave, $14.6 billion for pre-K and child care, and $150 billion in care for the aging and people with disabilities;
- Nutrition assistance, including fully funding WIC and SNAP;
- $16.48 billion for Head Start and $38 billion for K-12 education;
- Health care for families including robust funding for maternal health care and mental health care;
- Women's health research and innovation; and
- Protection for all reproductive health programs
Sincerely,

Why is this important?
I sent my twins to head start and only one walked out alive when a table crushed my daughter In 2017.
We need this funding, especially for infrastructure. The safety of our children and their teachers and support staff should be paramount.
Every child deserves to come home from school.
