How the Care Movement Is Organizing Against Devastating Federal Tax and Budget Cuts

A stated priority of the new administration and Congress is to enact massive tax cuts disproportionately benefiting wealthy individuals and corporations. Proposals to pay for these tax cuts include substantial budget cuts and structural changes to Medicaid, Head Start, food and housing assistance, and other vital programs. These budget cuts would also shift large costs onto states, further undermining family health and income security. The impacts will cut across generations, reverse gains for women, children, older adults, people with disabilities, and workers, and hinder future federal public investments in equitable child care, paid leave, and aging and disability care.

Funders are invited to join a briefing on the devastating impact of federal tax cuts on women, children, older adults, and people with disabilities and how the care movement is organizing to resist them.
