"Your voice matters" 👏 It is crucial to keep in mind why we're so passionate about affordable childcare options for employees. These days, nobody should have to choose between their job and their family. Offering childcare benefits isn't just a nice perk anymore—it's something we absolutely need to do and we will keep working towards beating the childcare crisis one family at a time.

We did it! Tonight, after nearly 15,000 moms and allies called on CNN to ask the presidential candidates about the child care crisis — they asked the question! Moments ago, Jake Tapper and Dana Bash brought child care to the national stage, acknowledging the astronomical cost of child care for families and asking the candidates how they plan to fix the broken child care system if they are elected. And...the candidates failed to give us any substantive answers and used the time to bicker. Clearly, we have our work cut out for us. While we are disappointed that our presidential candidates failed to acknowledge the seriousness of our child care crisis — tonight, let’s take a moment to celebrate the power and influence of moms. Because your voice matters and this is just the beginning. This is what happens when moms get loud and fight for ourselves — we get results.
