[ [link removed] ]TAKE SURVEY
Dear Friend,
You may have noticed something strange happening lately. So now we’re
doing something strange (for us!).
We’re doing our first-ever survey to hear more about what’s happening
across the country during this affordability crisis so that we can better
push toward real solutions to make it easier for parents to raise kids.
[ [link removed] ]*Can you take the survey? It should take less than 5 minutes – and will
have a lasting powerful impact as we share the data to help shape the
national agenda and get solutions. (Your survey answers will be
anonymous.)
Why the survey now? What’s strange? Some politicians, billionaires,
pundits, and influencers are increasingly telling Americans that we need
to have more babies and are suggesting incentives like “Motherhood Medals”
as they simultaneously cut healthcare. Some are even blaming and shaming
women for falling birth rates.
[ [link removed] ]But here’s what we want to know: What do YOU think?
Because while some powerful people are busy telling Americans to have more
children as they cut essential family economic security programs;families
are dealing with the very real (sky high) costs of raising them. Child
care. Housing. Groceries. Health care. Paid family and medical leave.
[ [link removed] ]TAKE THE SURVEY!
Your experiences, your voice, and your perspective are needed to help push
back on harmful narratives about moms – and to shape the national policy
agenda so we can move toward solutions to the affordability crisis,
[ [link removed] ]So we want to hear what’s shaping your (and your close loved ones)
decisions about having children and what would actually make it easier for
people to build the families they want.
Have rising costs caused you - or a close loved one - to delay having a
child? Have you decided against having another because of sky high child
care or other basic expenses? What would make a difference? And how does
it feel to hear some politicians just telling Americans to have more
babies while cutting healthcare?
Your answers will help MomsRising understand what families are actually
experiencing — and also help MomsRising push for the solutions families
really need (as we also push back on conversations about families that too
often leaves families themselves out).
Because families don’t need lectures about how many children to have, they
need solutions.
We’re moms. We love babies and we love our kids. And we need an economy
and policies that make it possible for every person to build the family
they want and to build good lives.
