Many of the families AFSCME child care providers work with rely on Medicaid and food assistance to survive. Cutting these programs means cutting lifelines for some of the most underserved and overlooked in our communities. Child care providers will feel the impact as many of them also rely on these programs to provide quality care or to survive themselves.
