Yesterday ~68 people employed in HHS's Administration for Children & Families early childhood offices were terminated. I'm told Office of Head Start lost ~20% of staff; Office of Child Care lost ~25%
These workers process grants for preschools/childcare centers, monitor health/safety issues, etc.

2) they want women out of the workforce.
By coming after Head Start I think they’re showing what they want quite clearly.

How very “Christian”.
Tell their stories. Make it personal.
If you know, you know...
Anyway I'm SURPRISED that they haven't ripped Head Start to shreds and burned it in a dumpster yet.
That is a 100% unashamed socialist program that serves minority kids and families, mostly single moms.
Nursing homes the same thing
They need to be expanding safety, inspections, funding and licensing (including stricter requirements) for daycares not cutting programs
I worked with the Headstart program, this org is so much more than preschool. Headstart provides screening for hearing, speech, learning difficulties and behavioral problems.
They also offer help for parents with GED classes, financial budgeting, DV resources and more
HEADSTART!!
My biggest regret is that their stupidity won't just hurt them.

Younger folks: Google up Bugs Bunny for proof of the above.
Why couldn’t I see before?

Millions will be homeless, broke,starving, no medical coverage..
REVOLUTION IS OUR ONLY CHOICE
They’re trying to force moms to be home and out of the workforce.
This may be a backdoor way of defunding: just fire all the people who process grant applications and cut the checks. At very least, slows down $ getting out the door.

Is anyone refuting these lies?
Today Trump attended the Daytona 500 wasting tax payers dollars . 🤬
They're going to get things to where they're so overloaded, more staff quit and everything grinds to a halt, so they'll show even more 'savings'

This nice official government website gives an overview of wrongful terminations: https://www.usa.gov/wrongful-ter...
That they are doing this wrong means they've gone around HR folks who know.
Not surprised.
