I've heard from families across the state, people who are terrified about the uncertainty and instability surrounding Head Start. Just one week into President Trump's administration, Head Start programs in Wisconsin suddenly couldn't access their grant funding [one week into President Trump's administration].

Over the last four months, HHS has provided roughly a billion dollars less to Head Start programs across the country than during the same period last year. (03:56–04:06)
