Things to do tomorrow night while not watching the State of the Union address:

- Alphabetize your spice rack
- Teach your dog to filibuster.
- Try explaining crypto to a houseplant.
- Text an ex “we need to talk”
- Watch paint dry.

90% of Armett's families rely on federal funding to afford care—funding the administration is illegally trying to withhold.

Instead of taking steps to fix the affordability crisis, the White House's efforts would hurt working parents, children and child care providers. We demand more.
