Born and raised in LA County, David Huerta is a champion for justice and a good neighbor. Today, while advocating for his community during an ICE raid, he was injured and arrested. These raids are dangerous for our families and communities. They are unjust and must end.
Let’s be clear: ICE injured and detained the president of SEIU California for peacefully observing.
ICE picked the wrong side. The wrong state. The wrong person. and the wrong union. David Huerta stood up. And 750,000 SEIU workers are standing with him.

Today I joined a Day Without Childcare hosted by @SPACEsInAction. The Pay Equity Fund is a critical investment in the District’s littlest residents and I am thankful to Mayor Bowser’s promise to forgo cuts to it in the FY26 budget.

Today is National #DayWithoutChildCare! Quality, affordable child care is essential for families, employers and Wisconsin’s economy.
Wisconsin families are counting on their legislators to do better & to help stabilize & support the child care industry.

Today is the Day Without Child Care. Families, providers, educators, and advocates across Wisconsin are calling attention to the urgent crisis in our child care system. Without real investment, working parents are left stranded and kids lose out on the safe, nurturing care they deserve. It’s time to prioritize child care and support the backbone of our economy.

This morning, I stood with parents, caregivers, kids, and community members in Waunakee as we marked the #DayWithoutChildCare. Every family deserves quality, affordable child care, and I’m proud to support our state’s dedicated providers. I thank you all for your hard work!

There are also small bubbles floating in the air, slightly distracting everyone and causing them to laugh.

Child care is not a luxury. It is a necessity. It allows parents to work, gives children a strong start in life, and strengthens our economy. #ralpol #wakepol

Childcare is one of the biggest cost burdens for American families—right up there with rent or mortgage payments.
But it doesn't have to be a luxury.
Progressives will keep fighting for universal child care. Congress should fund families, NOT billionaires. #DayWithoutChildCare

This May 12, for #DayWithoutChildCare, we’re raising our voices across NC because the system is in crisis—and families like ours are paying the price.
Without affordable childcare, we can’t work. And without work, we can’t provide. That’s the reality for too many of us.
