Call Your Members of Congress Today and Tomorrow to Prevent Harmful Cuts
Sequestration cuts deadline starts
March 1st. As part of the
Fiscal Cliff deal Congress and the White House delayed putting the
sequestration/cuts into effect until March 1.
Automatic cuts will be roughly 5% to child care, Head Start, K-12
programs, WIC and other programs.
It is important to understand that
these cuts will cause serious damaged to children and families as well as to
the education workforce for example 70,000 children will lost Head Start and
Early Head Start enrollment, 30,000 children will lose child care assistance,
600,000 children and mothers will lose WIC and many other programs on the
chopping block.
Join me by acting now to call
and/or email your 2 Senators and your Representatives (Senator Kay Hagen,
Senator Richard Burr, Congressman David Price) and share these bullet points
Let your voice be heard!
