Baby Bonds is a 🔥 new DC program that seeks to reduce #WashingtonDC’s racial wealth gap so all children have a #FairShot to thrive. White DC households have 81x the wealth of Black households. Public investments can level the playing field. Learn more: wearedcaction.org/publications/b…

Navigating the challenges of being an ECE provider in Washington, D.C. is no easy feat, but the focus on the little ones makes it all worth it 💕@BainumFdn #ECEprovider #ChildcareChallenges #LoveWhatYouDo
Yesterday we delivered letters from Educare DC teachers to the @councilofdc about what the #PayEquityFund means to them. The Council must keep its commitment to early childhood teachers and fully restore the Pay Equity Fund in the FY25 budget. #ProtectPEF
🚨 BREAKING: @ehaspel's investigation into private equity & shareholders' impact on #childcare is here. 🚨 An unprecedented degree of investor activity is creating a cascade of risks, threatening the path toward an inclusive child care system. bit.ly/3JuBWBt
Over the past six months, I have been looking into the rising influence of profit-seeking investors -- particularly private equity firms -- in the child care sector. What I found is a cascade of risks that call for policymaker attention. @EarlyLearnNatn earlylearningnation.com/2024/04/the-en…
The Mayor’s budget already repays the Fiscal Stabilization Reserve between FYs 25 and 27, so before FY 28. It doesn’t seem like Lee is ceding any new ground, perhaps except allowing repayment all in one year vs three? Unclear

Exploring the challenges, solutions, and societal impact of early childhood education in this episode. Discover how D.C. became a leader in ECE for 3- and 4-year-olds, while birth-to-3 was left behind. 📚 #WashingtonDC #strongerstart #earlyeducation #earlychildeducation.
Just in time for Month of the Young Child + a contentious #washingtondc budget season that has seen @MayorBowser propose eliminating the Pay Equity Fund, @YourDCTV w/ @BainumFdn support is rebroadcasting Stronger Start this week! #childcare #Under3DC dctv.org/strongerstart
Wow, thank you @ChmnMendelson for committing to restore the Pay Equity Fund. The Chairman is right in that DC is the nation's leader in paying their early educators a fair and living wage. It makes no sense to take their hard earned salary increase. #Under3DC

Thank you, @ChmnMendelson! This is the right move. The law is on your side. This means over 4k early educators will be able to keep their raises and healthcare. And more schools will have stable budgets going into next year 🙌🏽

For D.C. child care workers, the D.C. Pay Equity Fund -$75 million program that allows #ECE educators to be paid similarly to D.C. public school teachers - is up for budget cuts. Public budget hearing is May 3; vote set for May 29. @Beckgale reports. tinyurl.com/3ypdkhae
Thank you @ChmnMendelson for keeping your commitment to early childhood teachers! “I am quite clear that my proposal will restore at least $217 million to the Pay Equity Fund…Bottom line: the Pay Equity Fund will be restored” #ProtectPEF

The District made a commitment to early childhood educators, and we cannot ask them to go back to earning minimum wage. We must restore the Pay Equity Fund in the fiscal year 2025 budget. Here are the reasons why: thedcline.org/2024/04/18/jan…
April 16th was DC Emancipation Day, the 162nd anniversary of the abolition of slavery in DC. It's a celebratory day for the District. But as we see cuts to programs that are helping right historical wrongs, we're reminded of injustices that persist. t.ly/7AVb5
DC #EmancipationDay: a reminder of promises unfulfilled for Black Washingtonians. While strides have been made, economic freedom remains elusive. The battle to preserve the Pay Equity Fund symbolizes the ongoing fight for equity.
🧵Today is #TaxDay, the deadline to file and pay taxes (or file an extension) for 2023. Many #WashingtonDC residents qualify for 2 tax credits that aim to put more money in the pockets of families with children: the Child Tax Credit (CTC) and the Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC).
"We're going to see the childcare sector collapse in the district if we don't fix this." I spoke with @CMCHenderson on @wusa9 this morning about the Early Childhood Educator Pay Equity Fund. The mayor's proposed budget for 2025 eliminates this fund.

Don’t forget it’s DC Budget Season. Early Childhood is under attack. Our teachers are trying to build their skills to build your child’s skills and the Mayor wants to cut their earned benefits. Let the Council know.
Navigating the challenges of being an ECE provider in Washington, D.C. is no easy feat, but the focus on the little ones makes it all worth it 💕@BainumFdn #ECEprovider #ChildcareChallenges #LoveWhatYouDo
Yesterday we delivered letters from Educare DC teachers to the @councilofdc about what the #PayEquityFund means to them. The Council must keep its commitment to early childhood teachers and fully restore the Pay Equity Fund in the FY25 budget. #ProtectPEF
Thank you for discussing the Pay Equity Fund w/@CMFrumin, Megan! We LOVE to see parent solidarity with the District's early educators! #Under3DC #WashingtonDC x.com/megan_c_clark/…
I appreciated having a chance to talk to @CMFrumin’s staff this morning about the status of the Pay Equity Fund, bike racks, and bike lanes in Ward 3! Most of his staff bikes and is equally outraged about DDOT’s actions on Connecticut Ave 😌

Over the past six months, I have been looking into the rising influence of profit-seeking investors -- particularly private equity firms -- in the child care sector. What I found is a cascade of risks that call for policymaker attention. @EarlyLearnNatn earlylearningnation.com/2024/04/the-en…
@EJGoulet @TazraMitchell @Under3DC Confusing reporting. But I’m confident Mendelson will still pursue his approach.
Good news but why didn’t the CFO determine this 3+ weeks ago?!
DC’s CFO says @MayorBowser & @ChmnMendelson do not have to replenish $217 million in DC reserve funds by FY 25. CFO tells @nbcwashington “a full replenishment of Reserves must occur before FY 2028”
The Mayor’s budget already repays the Fiscal Stabilization Reserve between FYs 25 and 27, so before FY 28. It doesn’t seem like Lee is ceding any new ground, perhaps except allowing repayment all in one year vs three? Unclear

DC’s Early Educators who followed OSSE’s urging to get credentials and degrees to learn how to give our young children the best educational start in life are facing a Mayoral cut in salaries that reward educational goals.
DCELC wants to thank Chairman Mendelson’s support for the Early Educator’ Pay Equity Fund ; it will benefit young children throughout DC as their teachers continue to get the education and credentials needed to provide quality early learning experiences for them.
