[WCNY's The Capitol Pressroom @CapPressRoom]

Policymakers of all stripes in New York want to increase access to child care, but there isn't a consensus on how to get there.

We explore some possible next steps to take in 2026 with @pedronaboz of @childrensagenda.

A recent report by @pedronaboz lays out the options @GovKathyHochul can choose from to fund universal #ChildCare in New York.

@StynesMichael @jainfamilyinst @socio_steve There are no problems with the EITC that can't be solved with more EITCs. (h/t @jdcmedlock)

[New York Focus @nysfocus]

NEW: A state lawmaker wants New York to give $1,800 to new parents.

His plan would have the federal government help pay, as the program would be run through Medicaid.

Thank you to @sarahhartclark and @pedronaboz for highlighting the need to end the red tape that makes it difficult for families to access child care. We need Governor Hochul to sign these bills today!

The ten states with fully refundable child tax credits in 2023 differ wildly when it comes to maximum credit amount and phaseout threshold/rates.

[Pete Nabozny @pedronaboz]

@MaxGhenis @JoshuaTMcCabe Yeah, I think there are some drafting issues that may need to be sorted out...

[Pete Nabozny @pedronaboz]

The @NYSA_Majority needs to get this bill through this year. Becoming injured or ill shouldn’t consign someone to poverty.

[Jason Cone @jtcone1977]

Now @NYSA_Majority must pass A.10561 (@SolagesNY). NYers cannot survive another year of only getting $170 per week in benefits when they get sick or injured & can’t work. That is poverty wages. NYers also have no job protection under current law. @ABetterBalance @RobinHoodNYC

[Pete Nabozny @pedronaboz]

The structure of the supplemental Empire State Child Credit that New York included in the state budget this year is truly something to behold.

"People talk about the decline of newspapers," @rocnewsguild chair Tracy Schuhmacher told Hell Gate, "but the kind of support we’ve received tells us we still matter."

[State Senator Andrew Gounardes @Sen_Gounardes]

When Congress let the expanded Child Tax Credit expire, poverty skyrocketed. Now 1 in 5 New York kids live in poverty.

My Working Families Tax Credit would slash child poverty and help families stay in New York. Let's get it done in this year's budget.

[New York Focus @nysfocus]

New York has the fifth-highest rate of child poverty in the country.

After the federal government failed to expand the child tax credit, will Albany finish the job?

[The Children's Agenda @childrensagenda]

We need to flood the Governor’s office with phone calls TODAY telling her to invest in an 11% increase for Early Intervention rates so providers are there when kids need them. Dial [phone], press 3 then press 1 to leave a voicemail.

[Josh McCabe @JoshuaTMcCabe]

Fantastic new @childrensagenda report from @pedronaboz making the case for New York's proposed Working Family Tax Credit. We need more bold thinking like this when it comes to state CTC reforms. 👏🏼 https://t.co/WbvrrPPNoU

[The Children's Agenda @childrensagenda]

Thank you to all of the parents, community members and partners who worked together to win for kids! We go further when we go together.

SPREAD JOY by giving today! Give kids what they need most by supporting solutions that work best. Enacting policies that are good for kids makes a lifetime of difference. Give today at https://t.co/5ZdQZ3b3FH

[Empire State Campaign for Child Care @EmpireStateCCC]

Families' child care needs don't always align neatly with their work day. Children's early learning needs should be prioritized over a fluctuating work schedule. We're calling on @GovKathyHochul to stop tying child care assistance to work hours! #NYSUniversalChildCare

@natkpowell Pretty sure it was Ramesses III’s proto-Keynesian temple building policies that provided the fiscal stimulus necessary to stabilize his regime. Fiscal, not monetary, policy was key to regime survival.
