USE YOUR VOICE! Tell us about the wonderful immigrant caregivers in your life!
“One of our son’s home health aides is from Haiti and she truly loves him
and makes sure he’s getting great care. Her dedication and friendship have
made her a part of our family and we all look forward to her time with us,
from work days to holidays and anything in between.”
– Christopher from Pennsylvania
Day-after-day immigrant caregivers help keep families and children, like
Christopher’s, healthy and safe! They are truly unsung heroes!
Across the country immigrants make up more than 18% of the nation's
healthcare workers, 18% of childcare workers, 27% of the direct care
workforce, and nearly 13% of the education workforce. Moms are so thankful
for the countless contributions immigrants make to keep families and kids
healthy, educated, and safe! A great way to thank these unsung heroes is
to lift up their contributions and share their story.

Families struggling to make ends meet need a strong SNAP (Food Stamp)
program to help feed their families.
Right now, the U.S. Congress is considering legislation (the Farm Bill)
that determines policies and funding for SNAP. The Senate has a bipartisan
Farm Bill that aids farmers and protects the food assistance SNAP provides
to over 42 million people each month. The Republican-led House proposal,
on the other hand, weakens SNAP, cutting roughly $30 billion in benefits
over the next decade.

Bill that protects SNAP (also known as food stamps) and to reject the
Republican-led House version that weakens SNAP!
