We need the outreach teams again!
“We got DOH lists and were calling people: ‘Hi, I see that you gave birth 3 years ago. Would you like a seat for your kid?’” he said, noting that the teams who used to do this outreach have been disbanded. “This is the type of aggressive outreach that we need to fill 3K seats.”

We still have a long way to go in the child care fight. The idea that the mayor has restored and is expanding 3k is a false flag. He is backfilling funding for the program at its current operation. There are still 170M in PEGS unaccounted for from this last round of cuts.
TY @NYCCouncil + Chair @JustinBrannan for continuing to fight after Mayor Adams' partial restorations. We agree! There's a lot left to fund: $2B for Homes Now, Homes for Generations, $1B for education, $94M for CUNY, $400M for childcare, $58.3M for libraries & more. #CareNotCuts

"Rebecca Bailin, executive director of @NY4ChildCare said the mayor had cut $400 million intended for such [3-K] programs, so it was unclear if he could deliver on his promise. 'We’ll see,' Ms. Bailin said." nytimes.com/2024/04/24/nyr…

The City should follow the City Council’s more realistic expectations about sustainable revenue levels and fully fund critical programs facing expiring federal funding, including 3-K and additional social services and education programs.
Thank you @JustinBrannan ! Keep fighting for the universal 3K we were promised @NYCSpeakerAdams @NYCCouncil
"Every child who wants a Pre-k or 3-k seat will have access to one!” - @NYCMayor on Executive Budget. Will hold you to that statement on May 16 when the 3K offers go out!
A budget is a moral document that shows what a state prioritizes. The New York state budget failed to prioritize stability for children and families, and shortchanged the child care educators who care for them. Read our full statement below. empirestatechildcare.org/response-to-fi…
.@GovKathyHochul, we’re glad you promoted investments in the care economy in DC, but change starts at home. Statement from @AQE_NY on the lack of meaningful funding for families or child care workers in this year’s state budget: @EmpireStateCCC
This is a huge disappointment. Decoupling has passed the legislature twice with bipartisan support, only to be be vetoed by the governor. It's a measure that would help providers and families alike. We won't give up fighting until child care in NY works for EVERY family.

On Friday, @NYCMayor refused to say whether he’ll fully implement universal 3-K — so Arjuna & Artemis have a message for the Mayor: “Mayor Adams wants to give us crumbs — but we want the whole cookie!”
Join us for a pre-mother's day meet and great to learn more about how you can get involved in the fight to win free child care for all kids under 5. RSVP: united4childcare.org/events/mothers… **All are welcome! You don't need to be a parent to attend and contribute to this movement.**
NYC parents and would-be parents want what they’ve been promised: free child care for all 3 and 4 year olds. Read: Mayor Adams restores $500 million for education, leaves open-ended questions about free child care in NYC amny.com/news/funding-r…
While Mayor Adams has taken all the heat for proposed cuts to 3K, it's worth noting that Governor Hochul has slashed funding for child care worker wage supplements in the state budget. In short, expect fewer workers and therefore less child care for you.
Advocates say the announcement by the mayor and speaker today is an important step, but more is needed.

How is Adams going to give a 3-k seat to “every family who wants one” after disbanding the city’s outreach teams 🤨
“We got DOH lists and were calling people: ‘Hi, I see that you gave birth 3 years ago. Would you like a seat for your kid?’” he said, noting that the teams who used to do this outreach have been disbanded. “This is the type of aggressive outreach that we need to fill 3K seats.”

As more working and middle-class families leave New York, cuts should be the last resort, not the first impulse. FPI's full statement on the NYC FY25 Executive Budget: fiscalpolicy.org/fpi-on-nyc-fy2…
In his Executive Budget presentation, @NYCMayor repeated three times that there will be a Pre-K or 3-K seat for every family that applies, but will there be a teacher in every classroom? Teachers and staff are overworked and underpaid. They need a new contract with fair wages.
"Every child who wants a Pre-k or 3-k seat will have access to one!” - @NYCMayor on Executive Budget. Will hold you to that statement on May 16 when the 3K offers go out!

A budget is a moral document that shows what a state prioritizes. The New York state budget failed to prioritize stability for children and families, and shortchanged the child care educators who care for them. Read our full statement below. empirestatechildcare.org/response-to-fi…
Over the past six months, I have been looking into the rising influence of profit-seeking investors -- particularly private equity firms -- in the child care sector. What I found is a cascade of risks that call for policymaker attention. @EarlyLearnNatn earlylearningnation.com/2024/04/the-en…
This is a huge disappointment. Decoupling has passed the legislature twice with bipartisan support, only to be be vetoed by the governor. It's a measure that would help providers and families alike. We won't give up fighting until child care in NY works for EVERY family.
We also did not see decoupling get over the finish line, a much-needed fix to ensure equality for our working families who rely on the subsidy system to afford child care. I will continue my work in the Assembly to help children, families, and care providers throughout New York.
@GovKathyHochul parents are struggling to find child care because the child care workforce is struggling to recruit and retain workers. That's why our coalition has asked you to make a PERMANENT $500M investment in the child care workforce. That's how you fix this.
Years ago, I had to leave a job I loved because we couldn’t find childcare. Too many working parents still face that struggle today. Together with our partners in the @WhiteHouse, we’re taking action to expand access to childcare & give everyone a chance to succeed.
“‘People are doing very well on these contracts. I have to get mine. Where are my crumbs?’ Pearson allegedly told retired NYPD sergeant Michael Ferrari, who filed the lawsuit…” politico.com/news/2024/04/1…
On Friday, @NYCMayor refused to say whether he’ll fully implement universal 3-K — so Arjuna & Artemis have a message for the Mayor: “Mayor Adams wants to give us crumbs — but we want the whole cookie!”
While Mayor Adams has taken all the heat for proposed cuts to 3K, it's worth noting that Governor Hochul has slashed funding for child care worker wage supplements in the state budget. In short, expect fewer workers and therefore less child care for you.
Especially when the other option is that we can just build more housing where we need it!
Ppl like “if you can’t afford a house in your city why don’t you move to a small town in a state you’ve never been to 100s of miles away from all your friends and family with no childcare options or anywhere to walk to and do your remote job alone in your affordable home office?”
