“While the money is there in Wisconsin, the question is whether there is enough political will,” said WECA Executive Director Ruth Schmidt on the Legislature’s potential for allocating funding for child care in the 2023-25 state budget.

The business and workforce case for child care investment is clear – the state loses $1.9 billion in annual lost economic productivity and employers suffer their own challenges due to the child care crisis.

Such an important message! Childcare is a women's issue, a family issue, and a workforce issue!

#DayWithoutChildCare

[Rep. Tip McGuire @StateRepTip]

Today is Day Without Child Care, when parents are speaking out about how critical child care is to their families. For many, child care is the only way for parents to get to work, and without that job, they would not be able to support their children.

[WECA @EarlyEdMatters]

A Kenosha event brought together providers and state Rep. Tip McGuire to discuss the importance of more than $300 million for the Child Care Counts Program in the 2023-25 state budget.
