Tomorrow is Equal Pay Day and we need your help to make sure that child care educators are more fairly compensated across New York State. While the state Senate proposed $500 million to better support this essential workforce, the Governor's budget proposal included $0 in investment. We need to push the Assembly and Governor to follow the Senate's lead and include this funding in the final budget.

Tomorrow, March 18, from 4PM to 5PM EST, we'll be making calls to advocate for fair wages and investment in the child care workforce. Help us push for at least $500 million for child care workers to ensure accessible and affordable care in our communities and fair compensation for this vital workforce.
Hope to see you there!
In solidarity,
