The emails I receive from families worried about losing these services are heavy and constant. I am still pushing for a conversation with the governor because the silence from his office is not an answer.

Reaching this level of support feels heavy because it confirms how many families are truly terrified about losing these services. I am exhausted by the fight, but knowing I am not carrying this burden alone keeps me going.

Bad idea. These families really depend on this support.

My daughter is in this program and she has come so far. Without it she would be struggling way more. Keep it running.

My son needed this help SO much when he was little. You can't just cut programs that kids rely on to learn and grow. Please reconsider.

Ridiculous to cut funding here. Do the math governor, cutting early help just makes things way more expensive down the road.

Total incompetence. Find somewhere else to cut the budget.
