With the elections over, and many early learning supporters wondering what will happen next, I thought I’d remind you that a recent extensive poll showed remarkable bipartisan public support for early childhood education. The national poll, released in July 2016, showed that 90 percent of voters agree that the nation should support quality early childhood education. 

The First Five Years Fund put out this press release, NEW NATIONAL POLL: Majorities Of Trump And Clinton Supporters Unite On Early Childhood Education. Here’s a link to the poll: http://ffyf.org/2016-poll/ )

The poll showed support for early childhood development, home visiting, high-quality programs for infants and toddlers, and affordable quality child care. As we forge into 2017, let’s remember that there is strong bipartisan support for quality services for young children and families.

The four proposals leave everyday families even further behind because none of these tax proposals effectively target families who are struggling to make ends meet.
