<p class="MsoNormal">Dear Lorraine,<br>
<br>
<strong>Today is Early Care and Education Advocacy Day 2012 in Albany</strong>. Supporters from around the State are coming to the capital to meet with legislators about the Governor�s budget proposals.
<strong>Double the impact by making phone calls to your legislators� offices TODAY.
</strong><br>
<br>
<strong><span style="COLOR: #339966">Call these numbers:</span></strong><strong> Senate Operator 518-455-2800 / Assembly Operator 518-455-4100</strong><br>
<em><b>Give your zip code to the operator and you will be directed to your state legislator.</b></em><br>
<br>
<strong><span style="COLOR: #339966">Use these talking points</span></strong> to let him/her know what needs to be done to provide New York State�s children with high-quality early care and learning programs:
<br>
<br>
<strong>1. Redirect competitive grant funds to increase Universal Prekindergarten funding by $53 million as proposed by the New York State Board of Regents.</strong><br>
<br>
<strong>2. Support the Executive Budget�s proposal of $93 million in child care subsidies and advance funds for 2013-14 to help close the gap.
</strong><br>
<br>
<strong>3. Invest $20 million in QUALITYstarsNY (QSNY)</strong><br>
<br>
Our youngest learners are <strong>counting on your voice</strong> to carry the message that high quality early care and learning programs should be a priority for New York State. For more in-depth information on our priorities, see
