In his #MayRevise, @cagovernor recognizes #ChildCare is foundational to getting people back to work.

We are hopeful that budget and union negotiations next month will result in real progress for equitable #ChildCare policies.

#ChildCare is a civil right! It helps:
🧡Keep families stable
💛Grow kids’ social & emotional skills
💜Keep our economy strong

BUT our #ChildCare providers need basic worker & wage protections. And our families need #AffordableCare
