Last week, the House passed a COVID relief bill that delivered on the promise of more than $50B to #SaveChildCare. We need the Senate to do the same. @LeaderMcConnell @SenSchumer

"Everyone I know is suffering from this pandemic. I wish it hadn't been made political. People are dying and we need help." -Kimberly, #Michigan #SaveChildcare #ReliefCantWait
#Familychildcare educators are depending on Congress to provide relief right now. We need at least $50B to #SaveChildCare. Keep calling Congress. Families and providers deserve #ChildCareRelief now.
Providers, families and advocates continue to demonstrate that the child care industry is critical for families and our economy. @RepSeanMaloney, will you prioritize a COVID relief package that includes AT LEAST $50B to #SaveChildCare right now?
Congress, we need you to prioritize a COVID-19 relief pkg that includes at least $50B in dedicated funding to #SaveChildCare NOW. Child care programs are closing and the families that depend on them have fewer and fewer options.
Congress must focus on COVID-19 relief that includes at least $50B to #SaveChildCare. If not, America risks losing 4.5M child care slots. The House included this funding in the updated HEROES Act. The Senate must do the same! @SpeakerPelosi @GOPLeader @senatemajldr @SenSchumer
.@SenBlumenthal Families need child care and child care needs support. It’s been more than 7 months since Congress passed a relief bill, and our community is suffering. Costs are up and revenues are down. $50B is needed; will you act to #SaveChildCare now?

Let’s be clear, we know that the chronic undervaluing of caregiving, rooted in the stolen labor of enslaved women, fuels our fight for #paidleave & other workplace policies. America must move forward with equity and justice! #SaveChildCare @senatemajldr
