Trump’s budget slashes Head Start while hiking military spending to $1T—a clear message: weapons over children, war over education. Investing in kids is investing in America. Cutting them off isn’t “fiscal responsibility,” it’s cruelty. #SaveHeadStart #BudgetPriorities #KidsFirst

Trump wants to gut Head Start while pushing military spending to a record $1 trillion. Slashing early childhood education to fund more weapons says everything about his priorities—and nothing about investing in our future. #BudgetPriorities #HeadStart #MilitarySpending

It’s deeply depressing to watch our president sign bills that cut food assistance for poor families and children—

Meanwhile, ICE's budget triples to $170 billion. The goal isn't safety—it's mass detention of the innocent.
