The annual salary for a Dog Walker is $43,000. Portable toilet cleaners earn about $50,000 a year. And trash collectors cash in at about $45,000 a year, without overtime hours counted into their workload. If they work diligently through extra hours they may even bring home about $60,000 annually. 

Child care providers earn an abysmal median income of $27,000 a year.

If policy makers mean to invest in the future and our children then they have to show it by investing in early education.

Support early education by signing this petition to raise the budget for Early Education centers, with special consideration given to the centers that meet the keystone four-star standard and to show support for the "Prepare All Kids Act of 2013".
