In the last few weeks, thousands of Minnesotans joined us in calling on state legislators to increase access to quality preschool for Minnesota’s most at-risk 3- and 4-year-olds.
They heard you loud and clear, because MinneMinds is now in both the House and Senate budget bills.
Now let’s show lawmakers we appreciate their commitment to Minnesota’s preschoolers. Send them a note to thank them for making MinneMinds a priority.
Seeing enthusiasm from Minnesotans across the state has made team MinnCAN even prouder to serve as one of nearly 70 organizations in the MinneMinds coalition. You signed petitions, shared our infographic, called and emailed legislators. And all of that work has paid off tremendously.
But we aren’t there yet. In the coming weeks the budget bills will head to the House and Senate floors for a vote, and when they do, we’ll need you to encourage your legislators to vote “yes” and make this critical investment real.
But for now, go ahead and thank them for their excellent work thus far.
As you’ve seen, legislators value your opinion–and they’ll value your appreciation, too.
