@lksmith1215 @19thnews @BPC_Bipartisan Thank you, Linda, for this and for your work advancing this very important cause!
In this @BPC_Bipartisan report we address 3 issues to better support AI/AN families: strengthen state & tribal gov relations, serve AI/AN families & tribal members living in urban areas, and use data-driven methods to base tribal & AI/AN federal funding. @lksmith1215 @BarbFabre
This #Thanksgiving, I want to acknowledge the history of tribal nations, including genocide, forced removals, & intense assimilation efforts. @BPC_Bipartisan offers a new blueprint on how #childcare policy can be designed to strengthen tribal sovereignty. bipartisanpolicy.org/report/invisib…
This is incredible! Appreciate states innovating amid federal inaction and chaos. @CherylOldham @CaitCode @USCCFoundation @lksmith1215 @BPC_Bipartisan Kentucky made child care free for child care workers. It's already paying off - npr.org/2023/10/06/120…
Thank you @BPC_Bipartisan @lksmith1215 Tara Williams & Katherine Mercado for including our #childcare infrastructure initiative—Care Access Real Estate (CARE)—in your updated report on improving child care & early learning facilities🏡
The physical settings in which children learn, play, and grow have an enormous impact on their development. Check out our report on investing in #ChildCare and early learning facilities improvements. bit.ly/3L0FNaJ
Hot off the presses!📣Happy to share the final product of my work with @BPC_Bipartisan this summer on the intersection between #TANF and child care subsidies. Check out the BPC Early Childhood Initiative's full report (and 51 state factsheets!) here: bipartisanpolicy.org/report/tanf-an…
Does your state transfer TANF #childcare funds to CCDBG? Did you know by doing so it means minimum health and safety standards are met? Find where your state stands. @BPC_Bipartisan bipartisanpolicy.org/report/tanf-an…

Great, and frustrating, piece from @JessGrose here on our nation's #childcare crisis -- and I'm not just saying that because she used @BPC_Bipartisan and @lksmith1215 data. :)
Love to share a stage with @lksmith1215! Appreciate her partnership on #childcare and the passionate #business and #earlyeducation leaders in #SouthDakota. #solvechildcare
How to fix America’s broken child-care industry washingtonpost.com/opinions/2022/… You know @lksmith1215 has the answers! Happy that some of the early childhood team's work at @BPC_Bipartisan made it into this great piece.
🔴 We're LIVE from our “Childcare: A System Too Critical to Fail" session with @lksmith1215, @LibbyDoggett Tammy Mann (@CampagnaCenter) and Diana Rauner (@StartEarlyorg)! #SXSW #BPCxSXSW
@BPC_Bipartisan Enjoyed the opportunity to elevate an issue that is critical for children, working parents and our economy!
No easy answers but @lksmith1215 is right (as usual) "Child care is a business. It's a failed business model because we have a product that costs more to produce than most of the customers who need it can afford to pay." npr.org/2022/02/10/107…
Children’s experiences in their first five years have a profound impact on their lives. We’re heading to #SXSW with @lksmith1215 to discuss how to address the dwindling childcare supply. bpcdc.org/3LvDawj #BPCxSXSW
