Senators Murray and Luján Oppose Trump Administration's Changes to Head Start Program
Senators Patty Murray and Ben Ray Luján, along with advocates, have voiced strong opposition to a proposed rule by the Department of Health and Human Services under President Trump's administration. The rule aims to remove many of Head Start's requirements, including those for math and literacy curriculums, class sizes, and medical screenings. The senators argue that these changes undermine the program's ability to provide safe and effective early education. Head Start, which serves over 750,000 children nationwide, is crucial for early childhood education, particularly in underserved communities.
