We’re Mobilizing Washingtonians to Be the Voice for Kids
Washington State voters overwhelmingly support investing in our kids, and especially early education and child nutrition.
This is key because research shows the first five years of children’s lives are critically important for their development.
We’re training everyday Evergreen Staters to be the voice for kids.
We’re committed to ensuring all children succeed in school and life.
Tell Lawmakers to Vote Yes on the Millionaire’s Tax
A bill to bring in revenue that will help keep early learning programs off the chopping block in Washington State is up for a vote: a 10% tax on annual household income above $1 million. Send a message urging lawmakers to vote yes on a millionaire's tax!
Proposed cuts to early learning will make it even harder for families to find and afford high‑quality early learning. Tell lawmakers to reject child care cuts and protect the early learning programs in Washington.
Washington State lawmakers are considering deep cuts to early learning programs in response to a budget crisis. Tell lawmakers to reject these cuts!
Lawmakers are going to have to fill a big budget gap over these next two months, and we need to urge them to protect funding for early learning programs like Working Connections Child Care. Send a message today!
