Urgent Action Needed Today: Budget Close Out 🚨

The time to speak up is now, and the window is closing.

Budget negotiations are underway, and the Legislature is making decisions right now about what will and will not be in the 2026-27 enacted budget. The Governor's May Revise offered no meaningful protections for our programs or the families we serve. We need the Legislature to go further. And they need to hear from you.

Urge your elected lawmakers to stand up for children and families! Act today!
