Invest In Kids Now

Invest in Kids Now is dedicated to making early childhood education, health, and development for children from birth to age five a priority in New Mexico.

[Martin Heinrich @SenatorHeinrich]

New Mexico’s Land Grant Permanent Fund is valued at $25 billion. We can keep that money sitting in the bank in perpetuity, or we can invest more of those dollars in our kids right now.

#HJR1 is especially important for improving the earnings & upward mobility of single parents, who represent an increasing share of households in our state. #InvestInKidsNOW to support reliable, affordable early-childhood education as a crucial part of the solution. #nmleg

We need to expand our quality early childhood system by growing our early childhood workforce by implementing a robust wage and career ladder. #HJR1 can provide the money needed for quality improvement including wage increases for early educators and growing the workforce. #nmleg
