Child care industry requests $50 billion in relief | TheHill @ECEConsortium #FundChildCare thehill.com/business-a-lob…
While many states are establishing emergency care “for” first responders, Virginia was the first I’ve seen to rightfully acknowledge that child care providers are serving “as first responders.” So true. Thank you @VDSS @FirstLadyVA dss.virginia.gov/cc/covid-19-do…
#Childcare programs are closed to protect children and our communities. But without immediate assistance, they may never open again. Congress, don't let that happen. #FundChildCare with $50 billion in the emergency stimulus bill. #ChildcareNow @NAEYC
In an attempt to #FlattenTheCurve, child care programs across the country have closed. Yet, many #childcare providers will never reopen unless Congress decides to #FundChildCare with $50 billion in the emergency stimulus bill!
Congress must #FundChildCare to ensure that essential and emergency workers can be supported while they serve our communities and child care stays in business for the future.
Please support a move to #FundChildcare @RepMGriffith @RepMcEachin @RepElaineLuria @RepRiggleman @RepBenCline @RepSpanberger @RobWittman

#Childcare programs are closed to protect children and our communities. They are acting in the public's interest. They are a public good. And they need public assistance. Without it, they may never open again. Congress, #FundChildCare! #ChildcareNow
#Childcare stands in an essential position in the immediate response to this crisis and the coming recovery. Families cannot work without care for their #babies and young children. Congress, as you make emergency decisions, you must #FundChildCare @timkaine @MarkWarner
Nuestras comunidades dependen del cuidado que proveemos a familias de niños pequeños. No podemos permitir que el colapso del sistema de #childcare a causa del impacto devastador del #coronavirus. Miembros del Congreso, ¡Necesitamos #childcareNow—ya es hora! #FundChildCare
America is on the verge of losing more than half of its #childcare programs in the next week IF there isn’t significant public investment & support so that they can compensate & retain staff, pay rent & cover fixed costs. Congress, #FundChildCare! #childcareNow @MarkWarner
Child care is an essential service and without it, we would not be able to effectively respond to the #COVIDー19 pandemic. However, without $50 billion in emergency stimulus funding, the #childcare industry will collapse. Congress, #FundChildCare because we need #childcareNow!
#Childcare plays an important role during public health & economic emergencies. Congress must support the child care system in their #COVID19 stimulus. #FundChildCare #ChildcareNow
Last week, @ZEROTOTHREE sent Congress 10 recs for action needed to safeguard the well-being of young children amid the #COVID19 crisis. Now we need your help to call attn to the needs of babies & families: zerotothree.org/covidaction #ThinkBabiesandAct #FundChildCare #ChildCareNow
#FundChildCare Twitter Storm starting now! Join us to tell #Congress how important it is for them to prioritize support for #childcare in their #COVID19 stimulus. #childcareNow
In Virginia, 27% of programs would not survive closing for more than two weeks without significant public investment; 18% would not survive a closure of any length of time; 54% have lost income based on families' inability to pay. @GerryConnolly @DonBeyerVA @RepWexton
Hoy, y siempre, los educadores de niñez temprana y los proveedores de #childcare permiten que familias puedan trabajar y contribuir a nuestra economía, pero sin apoyo, muchos de estos programas no sobrevivirán las clausuras causadas por el #coronavirus. Es tiempo ¡#FundChildCare!
The outlook is clear: without immediate financial relief, 1000s of #childcare centers & homes will close-permanently. We join w/@ECEConsortium & others in calling on #Congress to #FundChildCare w/$50B in stimulus to stabilize this essential industry. naeyc.org/about-us/news/…
In an attempt to #FlattenTheCurve, child care programs across the country have closed. Yet, many #childcare providers will never reopen unless Congress decides to #FundChildCare with $50 billion in the emergency stimulus bill! #TakeAction hubs.ly/H0nNcQS0
The #earlychildhood profession is the profession that keeps all professions working. Now more than ever, we need @senatemajldr @SpeakerPelosi @SenSchumer @GOPLeader to #FundChildCare and keep the #childcare industry from collapsing: bit.ly/39aiHZm
