The grand opening of the Kansas Office of Early Childhood is proof that smart policy solutions create lasting impact. United WE is proud to support legislation that strengthens families, expands opportunity, grows our workforce, and helps Kansas thrive. #ksleg

Earlier this month, SB 30 officially became law in Kansas. As May comes to a close, we reflect on the partnerships, advocacy, and policy solutions advanced this legislative session that strengthen economic opportunity and stability across the state.

Thank you @GovStitt for signing bipartisan legislation HB 1979 to explore streamlining Oklahoma’s child care system.

This is a meaningful step toward supporting working families, strengthening the workforce, and removing barriers to economic participation. #OKGov

Appreciate @GovStitt’s call for unity and long-term thinking. There is always more that unites than divides us, and by working together we can move forward together. #OKsots

We are honored for United WE President & CEO, @WendyDDoyle, to testify before the Kansas Senate Commerce Committee today on occupational licensing reform, SB30. When women have a license to succeed, economies grow. #KSleg

New reporting from The Daily Yonder shows rural states advancing child care through smart, targeted policy. That aligns with United WE research showing access to child care directly impacts women’s ability to work, earn, and stay in the workforce.

Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s legacy reminds us that justice is built through service, participation, and sustained commitment to change.

Listening is vital - especially when everything feels loud.

Robin Smith, Senior Director at @DeBruceFound, is one of the best listeners I know. She recently wrote about the importance of listening as you build your career path in @unitedwe__'s Magazine: https://t.co/ix8eaT1S5F

Thank you @GovMikeKehoe for your leadership. From cutting red tape to caregiving, United WE looks forward to continuing to partner with state leaders on smart, bipartisan solutions that expand opportunity for women across the state. #mosots

[United WE @unitedwe__]

Bipartisan solutions still exist – they just don’t get enough attention. One example: Yesterday, United WE testified before the Kansas Special Committee on Commerce in support of SB 30, a key step toward fair, efficient occupational licensing reform.

Honored to testify in Oklahoma today on childcare barriers. Research shows capacity shortages & licensing challenges hurt families and the economy. @UnitedWE__ is ready with solutions.

Thank you Rep. Aletia Timmons for hosting the study.

Grateful to our partner Ash Grove Charitable Foundation, the Clinton School of Public Service student volunteers, & all the community leaders & residents who joined our NW Arkansas Town Hall Luncheon. We’re energized & ready to keep advancing all women in Arkansas, together.

[Governor Laura Kelly @GovLauraKelly]

Kansas parents shouldn't have to choose between going to work and finding affordable child care. That's why we're supporting providers and expanding capacity faster than ever. We're on track to add more child care slots in the next two years than we have in the last 15.
