If you think public education and child care should be the bare minimum that all children receive, please sign this petition. The worst people in Oregon want to kill Preschool For All and we must defend it at all costs.

https://actionnetwork.org/petitions/fully-fund-preschool-for-all

The goal of the petition is to show County Commissioners the love that County residents have for our young families, preschool teachers, community and the free, universal Preschool for All program we voted for 2 to 1 in 2020!

County commissioners need to know that we expect them to keep our preschool program rolling out to all families in the County who want it! They hear far too much from conservative business interests trying to slash this program before it’s available to everyone. Let’s show them how their constituents and stakeholders really feel about PFA.
