What an argument to make @MayorBowser - if we can't increase wages for everyone, we shouldn't increase wages for anyone. Where was this argument when MPD was offering $25k hiring bonuses? You weren't balancing the budget on their backs

Thank you @CMCHenderson for saying it so clearly and so passionately. Eliminating the Pay Equity Fund is the wrong choice. Zeroing it out fails families, educators, child care providers, and our city. We will fight to the very end to get it back.

“There is no other group of women to whom we are saying, ‘There is a career path for you in early childhood, get your associates degree, go get your bachelors degree; but now we are telling you that you have to go back to accepting minimum wage.’”

“It feels as though we are proposing to balance this budget on the backs of Black and Brown women in the childcare sector with the elimination of the Pay Equity Fund.”

Look I go to 2 Amy’s and I get the food I want. Then they bring me a little check with how much it cost them to make the food appear in front of me. I sign that check and leave. Truly a magical experience.

This #ProviderAppreciationDay I am grateful for DC-based #childcare provider Cynthia, who not only runs an amazing, high-quality home-based program but was game when I asked if she wanted to speak on Capitol Hill today ❤️

Fascinating and important new report from @Liifund showing how climate change threatens a stunning number of NYC's family child care providers. Never seen an analysis quite like this: ECE folks and policymakers, take note! liifund.org/justgoodcapita…

Over the next 30 years, more than 100,000 properties in New York City are at risk of being affected by flooding. LIIF’s findings show the unique risks home-based child care providers face as coast lines shrink and rainfall intensifies. See full report: storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/55b348…

In a new report, LIIF finds that Family Child Care (FCC) providers –who offer licensed, quality care and education to thousands of young children in NYC – face unique risks from rising seas and intensifying flooding and rainfall. Read more on our findings. liifund.org/justgoodcapita…

Good luck to the *416* witnesses testifying at one hearing today on the important issue of education. Elimination of a stand-alone education oversight committee and concentration of education oversight negatively impacts public engagement and ultimately harms students.
EmpowerEd@EmpowerEdDC

🚨The list of public witnesses for tomorrow's Education Budget Oversight Hearing has now been posted. 4⃣1⃣6⃣ public witnesses have signed up to testify ❗️ dropbox.com/sh/a9c91dqy6nm…
