We believe in an America that puts families first.

In an America serious about that value, families would make more than a decent living; they’d have access to a decent life and the essential work for caring for family members would always be valued.

All children, not just those lucky to be born in wealthy families, would have the opportunity to succeed.

Families would be free to choose how and where their young children will be cared for and, without exception, every child in America would be cared for in safe, nurturing, educational environments.

Child care and early education would be affordable for working families – giving all children a strong start and every parent the peace of mind that their children are in safe, nurturing learning environments. In this America, all would mean all – no one left behind because of race, sex and gender identity, sexual orientation, religion, national origin, different abilities, or geography.
