@GovMikeHuckabee "Majorities across partisan lines agree—74% of Republicans, 79% of Independents, and 97% of Democrats. Only 10% of voters say federal funding for child care and preschool should be cut." ffyf.org/2017-poll/

@GovMikeHuckabee As it is the federal government spends almost nothing on child care and pre-k, so of course GOP budget proposals consistently try to slash what little there is newamerica.org/education-poli…

@GovMikeHuckabee 70% of small business owners want a federal program to help distribute the costs of family across the economy, rather than mandating a lotto for employers where employees with child or elder care responsibility could sink their business.

@GovMikeHuckabee Pretty much everybody guarantees paid parental leave but the United States. As a matter of federal policy every day is bring-your-cradle-to-work-day, the most it did was pass mandatory breast-feeding break time under Obamacare.

@GovMikeHuckabee A federal jobs guarantee polled with 46% support out of the gate, according to Rasmussen. rasmussenreports.com/public_content…

@GovMikeHuckabee But that's just a round about way of raising the federal minimum wage to $15, which is supported by 52% of the public.

@GovMikeHuckabee Smaller minimum wage increases climb to 70% support. Not unrelatedly the GOP wants to cut SNAP benefits further, despite nigh-universal support for raising them, even among Republicans.

@GovMikeHuckabee But how will we pay for it!? Between tax cuts and military spending boosts ya'll have passed $4T in debt spending in the first two years of your trifecta while concern over debt has gone down from 3% of peoples' top priority issue to 1%. Nobody cares much

@GovMikeHuckabee But we might make a good start by nickel and diming fraudulent huckster snake oil sawdust pill salesmen like Governor Mike Huckabee until they, too also, are just scraping by the skin of their teeth and seek common sense solutions like medicare for all.
