@KatieAlbitz 💯

California parents stand with us! 👨‍👦👩‍👧 We ensure they can go to work to provide for their families, knowing their children are in a safe early learning environment. Thank you @ParentVoicesCA for standing with us!

@elonmusk You have the largest platform for providing credible information and you CHOOSE to LIE. You are the richest man on Earth, put your money where your lies come out and pay your fair share so we can invest in public infrastructure like access to water, fire depts, workforce!

@Teamsters These results reflect a serious lack of political education that is a disservice to your members and the movement for economic justice. Trump, his enablers are proven to be against the right to collectively bargain, against higher wages & maintaining basic health and safety.

TEAMSTERS RELEASE PRESIDENTIAL ENDORSEMENT POLLING DATA “For the past year, the Teamsters Union has pledged to conduct the most inclusive, democratic, and transparent Presidential endorsement process in the history of our 121-year-old organization—and today we are delivering on that promise to our members,” said Teamsters General President Sean M. O’Brien. “Our members are the union, and their voices and opinions must be at the forefront of everything the Teamsters do. Our final decision around a possible Presidential endorsement will not be made lightly, but you can be sure it will be driven directly by our diverse membership.” The Teamsters have not yet endorsed any candidate for U.S. President. The union’s General Executive Board expects to announce a decision on Wednesday.

While sharing the story of the tragic death of Amber Nicole Thurman, Lawrence O’Donnell got emotional about the similarities between his own mother and Thurman (warning: distressing)

@DSchrantz @GovTimWalz @LtGovFlanagan @melissahortman @epmurphymn @ISAIAHMN @KCOU_MN We’re ready!!!

@MamaMarySF @GovTimWalz @LtGovFlanagan @melissahortman @epmurphymn @ISAIAHMN @KCOU_MN Thank you! With a Harris-Walz Admin we need to do A LOT of organizing to make childcare a national priority!!

I am so proud of Minnesota. @GovTimWalz is an extraordinary leader. And, MN is leadership rich, from Lt. Gov @LtGovFlanagan to @melissahortman to @epmurphymn and to strong labor/movement leaders and countless members and grassroots leaders—all of that made this moment possible.

As I told @ChabeliC_ “On care, if past is prologue, VP Harris is the right person to lead this conversation. It’s been a clear & clarion message that this is the unfinished business of the Biden/Harris admin & she will make it a top priority.” #caregiversforKamala #carecantwait

@M1_chelle @KatieAlbitz Great article!!!

@KatieAlbitz This is excellent.

"Where do cuts need to be made? The cuts need to be made from the wealthy sector, not the poverty sector," says the legendary Dolores Huerta at the Assembly Select Committee on Poverty & Economic Inclusion hearing. 👏#cabudget

Just like that. Since 2010 @ParentVoicesCA @Parent_Voices @ParentVoices_SF and all our chapters have transformed #childcare to be more just and inclusive. Join us 5/8 as we fight to remove more barriers to achieve our #PVdreams! #SFC24 #parentpower

@ParentVoicesCA @MamaMarySF tells @CAgovernor why we must use new #TANF pilots to #ReimagineCalWORKs: We must get rid of archaic, failed policies that punish parents🙌 This is our chance for a healing, trauma-informed program that supports families to succeed💛 #CaBudget #CaLeg

Proud to be at the @CalBudgetCenter Policy Insights conference! TY for centering parent/provider voice @CCPUCalifornia at #childcare workshop; to talk revenue options not budget cuts, & to center the work of the Reparations task force. S/o @BlackECECA leading this for child care!

So proud of our team in the Capitol today, and this isn’t all of them! 38 parents & kids fighting to protect CA’s #CalWORKs #TANF program from cuts. To the skeptics who think parents don’t care about state budgets or how policy decisions affect their lives, here’s the proof!

Happy Black History Month Thanks @EndPovertyCA @ParentVoicesCA @510families @EastBayTimes This is pretty cool❤️❤️🔥

@Jess_Bartholow @CAgovernor @GavinNewsom @CASenateDems We’re watching!!

#CaBudget : You can watch @CAgovernor @GavinNewsom ‘s January budget proposal this morning at 10:30 a.m. here: youtube.com/live/qe6d8rxJc… Be sure to visit @CASenateDems or sbud.senate.ca.gov to get details about the #CaLeg Senate’s Jan 23rd hearing to review his proposals.

Child care is too expensive and too hard to find – and this crisis will only get worse since critical funding expired. That’s why I’m joining the @DemWomenCaucus fight to advance @POTUS request for more child care funding.

We need to lower child care costs—and that starts with passing the child care funds that @POTUS requested, which would ensure 93,200 kids in Missouri have access to high-quality child care. I’ll keep pushing to #SaveChildCare and lower costs for families. washingtonpost.com/business/2023/…
