Becoming a new mom can require an abundance of supplies for both mother and baby. That’s why a bipartisan Senate duo is teaming up on a bill to provide new moms with starter pack newborn kits in communities with high rates of infant or maternal mortality. nbcnews.com/politics/congres…

TSU’s Department of Human Sciences partnered with @SCActionNetwork for Have a Heart on Feb. 11 in the Student Center. Students wrote 100 postcards supporting early childhood education that will reach 32 federal legislators and 3 state legislators. 🐅

This morning, 150+ early educators, child care providers, and advocates rallied at the Roundhouse for a wage and career ladder to support universal child care!
Workers are the backbone of NM’s bold policy, and their input will make it stable and long lasting. #nmpol #nmleg

SNAP helps put food on the table for 16 million children nationwide.
A government shutdown risks taking that away.
As our Chief Policy Officer tells @NBCNews, parents may go without food so their kids can eat.
This is unacceptable. Read the full story👇
Recipients of SNAP food assistance benefits across the country face a looming deadline: Come Nov. 1, their cards may not get refilled because of the government shutdown in Washington. nbcnews.com/health/health-ne…

When families have affordable, high-quality child care, parents work, businesses thrive & our economy grows.
Yet, child care workers remain underpaid & undervalued—putting the whole system at risk.
Congress must invest in both families and the workforce. wapo.st/462Hb6w

Today, I’m announcing my plan to put Virginia students first and make sure our public schools are the best in the country.
Together, we’ll prepare our students with the skills they need to succeed.

Congress just voted to cut nearly $8 billion in foreign aid, putting life-saving programs for kids at risk.
This decision goes against bipartisan commitments and puts the world’s most vulnerable children at risk.

When we invest in WIC, we invest in healthy futures for parents, infant and toddlers.
Yesterday the Senate Appropriations Committee advanced the FY26 Ag/FDA bill with full funding for WIC including protection of the fruit and vegetable benefit.
Thank you @SenatorCollins, @PattyMurray, @SenJohnHoeven, @SenatorShaheen for leading the way!

Critical federal funds for afterschool & summer programs are being withheld — despite bipartisan approval.
Thousands of kids, especially in rural & low-income communities, are at risk of losing safe, supportive learning spaces.

Really enjoyed giving remarks at @SCActionNetwork conference in Richmond. Affordable child care and early childhood education are key to a child’s success and to a family’s quality of life. If we want to make Virginia affordable we have to do more in early education!

The House of Representatives has approved a reconciliation bill.
We welcome the House’s efforts to increase the value of the Child Tax Credit and improve the employer-provided child care credit.
However, the proposed changes to SNAP threaten to leave many families worse off.
