More very needed understanding provided by @BDPerry. The brain is experience dependent and timing matters greatly. By providing nurturing, stimulating, and supportive environments early in life, we can help shape a child's brain in ways that optimize their potential for future physical and mental health, learning, self-perception and overall well-being. #relationshipsmatter #earlybraindevelopment

According to the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, HALF OF ALL WORKERS cite lack of child care as their reason for leaving the workforce 😮🚨‼️ We know how to fix this! @CAgovernor the time to act is now!

Despite equity improvements in our tax code, the TOP 1% still pay the LOWEST effective tax rate in state & local taxes. #HB547 would have them paying just 1% more & ONLY on their income over $.5 million. If you earn a half-million you can afford that! #nmleg #nmpol

In Sacramento for @MomsDemand 2023 California Advocacy Day, celebrating #10YearsofMoms - Just LOOK at this huge pile of letters to lawmakers from across the state, advocating for #SB2 and #AB28! Almost every single CA lawmaker will receive a letter from a constituent!

✅ @POTUS also calls on @HouseDemocrats @HouseGOP to make the Earned Income Tax Credit #EITC expansion for childless workers permanent, helping pull low-paid workers out of poverty. Join our #POTUSBudget week from March 10-17 to uplift critical programs in your communities.

In 2021, Child Tax Credit cut child poverty in half- lowest in history. #POTUSBudget calls for the extended and refundable #CTC. That means expanding the credit to $3,000 per child for children six years old and above and to $3,600 per child for children under six.

We are happy to hear that the #ChildTaxCredit is proposed to be expanded again in the new #POTUSBudget! The expanded CTC lowered childhood poverty by over 40% in 2021 and families across the country relied on it to keep their families afloat.

#SNAP emergency allotments for a majority of states and U.S. territories just ended, creating a "hunger cliff" for millions of families. This cliff will result in the average SNAP benefits falling to only $6 A PERSON/DAY! Take action w/ us: action.momsrising.org/sign/S…
