We collaborated with innumerable partners to extend collective reach and deepen our impact. We encountered candidates and office-holders, putting them on record about how they’d invest in kids, and helped build a non-partisan movement pledging to "#VoteForKids.” 5/

All eyes are on the #GeorgiaRunOff. This election will determine which party gains control of the U.S. Senate. Kudos to the more than 3 million Georgians who have already voted. 🗳️
