🧵:It's AAPI Equal Pay Day, an annual reminder that the reality of the wage gap is more than just a top line number. AAPI women earn 80 cents for every $1 paid to White men. It would seem like they have the narrowest pay gap of any racial group — but that’s far from the truth.

Childcare is so expensive--and early educators make so little. The only way we make this work is to make childcare a public good with public funding! Check out @TCFdotorg and @CaringAcrossGen’s Care Report Card: tcf.org/content/report…
NEW: We teamed up with @CaringAcrossGen to grade all 50 states and DC on their care policies. Despite tireless efforts from advocates, not one state got an “A” — underscoring the need for bold public investment in care infrastructure. 🧵
Our new @TCFdotorg 2024 State Care Report card is out today. It was great collaborating with @JulieKashen and @CaringAcrossGen's @JaimieWorker and Kathy Mendes. tcf.org/content/report…

The Preschool Development Grant Birth through Five (PDG B-5) program is a game-changer for states looking to improve the quality of child care and early learning for young learners and their families. We’ve got the details here: ffyf.org/resources/2024…
The 2023 State of Pre-K Yearbook is here, highlighting progress in state pre-K programs. Preschool enrollment increased in 2022-2023, reaching all-time highs for the percentage of both 3-year-olds and 4-year-olds enrolled. Read the full report here: lnkd.in/e33fsd3a
