It’s not good enough to start public school at kindergarten. By five years old 90% of the brain is already developed! Every child in America should have world class preschool. thecut.com/2020/11/oregon-un…

Can I Talk to You About Preschool for All?

It wasn’t easy, but after years of organizing, my county in Oregon will have universal early-childhood education.

That's wonderful ... Job well done!

Yes! Set up future generations for success. A child's brain is like a sponge, soaking up every bit of knowledge.

The return on investment for early childhood education/ #childcare is enormous. It’s a big win for children, families, the economy and business. Some of the US does this really well - and it’s not necessarily the ones you think. See @leahruppanner ‘s work #Motherlands

Stop perpetuating children raised by adults that aren't mom and dad. We need policies that strengthen family bonds. UBI, living wage, 1 yr maternity/paternity leave would permit one parent to stay home as much as possible during this critical time in development.

Absolutely! We must get this done.

My sons had a mom to get them started in those Pre-K years. I was lucky enough to work from home prior to home internet. They are now in their 40s and have done quite well so far. Both are tech workers.
