Issue Position: High quality and universal early childhood education.

Issue Position

The science is there. High-quality early childhood education prepares young people for life. Programs like full-day Pre-K have shown, beyond a shadow of a doubt, that participants benefit from higher graduation rates, lower rates of special education, and higher earnings in life. Every family deserves the opportunity to have their child in high-quality early childhood education programs. It's one of the best investments in our children, helps attract companies to relocate here, reduces multiple adverse childhood events which often leads to prison, and save taxpayers millions of dollars later in life.
