@aqeny.bsky.social@aqeny.bsky.socialMore than 10,000 children will be moving off NYC’s CCAP waitlist. Years of organizing helped make this happen. Now NY must fully fund CCAP statewide.

@aqeny.bsky.socialHome-based child care is essential to any truly universal system. New Mexico added 70+ providers and 700 new slots after announcing universal care. Now, New York let's learn from that investment ✊🏾

@aqeny.bsky.socialBack to school season brings possibility! Our new report looks at how months of budget decisions shape the adults and programs students return to, and why stronger public investment can help keep local wealth from deepening inequities. Please read and share!
@aqeny.bsky.socialYesterday we shared how payment delays are pushing child care providers into debt. Later in the day, NYC announced $43M to rebuild staffing and speed payments. Universal child care needs real public investment, which is why progressive revenue has to be part of the solution.
@aqeny.bsky.socialWhat does it say about our priorities when child care providers are putting their homes at risk to keep classrooms open? NY has the wealth to do so much more. The solution: tax the rich to fund truly universal child care. Follow @InvestInOurNY to make that shift real
