rare to see an american politician speak in these terms and it rocks
“When I speak about making our city more affordable, my vision is not limited to the homes that we live in or the child care that we’re making universal — it’s also a vision where we make it possible for working people to afford lives of joy, of art, of rest, of expression.”

This morning, Ms. Rachel and I visited District 2 Pre-K Center, where we sang and read with the wonderful students and educators. We also discussed universal childcare - and how we're making it happen for NYC!

Tonight, I was one of more than 200 people who gathered on Chicago’s North Side to mourn Renee Nicole Good. Several people asked me to publish my remarks from the vigil, so I’m sharing them here.

This would be so popular at the national level if centrist Democrats let us use those words in that order
Mamdani: "The cost of childcare will no longer discourage young adults from starting a family, because we will deliver universal childcare for the many by taxing the wealthiest few"

It's not really an exaggeration to say right-wing influencers on the X platform formerly known as Twitter now dictate federal policy.
Because of a conspiracy theory-based stunt by a January 6 insurrectionist who was trying to intimidate children and daycare workers, Trump is now freezing ALL childcare payments across the country.
You’ve got to be fucking kidding me.

Insurers Said They Could Return Home. Our Tests Found Neurotoxins in Their Bodies.
A Times investigation has found that insurers are driving families into homes contaminated by smoke. Lab results show how one family was exposed to neurotoxins and carcinogens.

Really annoyed my principal emailed staff telling us we need to solve the declining student enrollment issue by coming up with how to make our school more visible. It’s not that ICE was targeting our families all summer. Or that rent is too damn high so people are moving. Or birth rates are falling.

Parents of young children should be organizing relentlessly for free universal childcare because this seems unsustainable. Truly. At the very least, folks should be vociferously backing politicians who run on this.
We’re at $1,800/mo for part-time childcare, have friends that are closer to $5,000/mo for two kids. Add that to uncertainty of student loan repayment plans, and rising costs across everything else…
In Minnesota, it costs an average of $22,569 a year to send an infant to daycare — more than in-state tuition for a four-year public college.

I say this extremely seriously: one of the main skills children have to learn to be adults is to do things they *don't* find interesting. This is both because many necessary things in life are boring and because sometimes interesting things take time and effort first.
