Ages 0-4 are the most important, emotionally & intellectually, in human development.

Yet, in the US, we have a very high rate of childhood poverty and a broken child care system.

Congratulations to New Mexico for leading the way forward for high quality, free child care. Other states must follow.

This is what ICE does: just like they stalked the family’s car and smashed the windows in to kidnap them.

They attack people on the streets grab them and take them to concentration camps.

Entire neighborhoods gather to protect little babies & their moms from being separated & kidnapped.
