The Senate Resolution designates May 12, 2025, as "A Day Without Child Care" at the Louisiana State Capitol to raise awareness about the critical issues facing early childhood education in the state. It highlights the significant underfunding of early childhood education, which affects access to care for families and contributes to a loss of $1.3 billion annually in Louisiana's economy due to child care disruptions. The resolution emphasizes the need for better pay and working conditions for early childhood educators, who are among the lowest-paid professionals in the education sector, often qualifying for public assistance themselves.

The resolution is supported by For Providers By Providers (4PXP), Louisiana's only provider-led early childhood education organization, which is coordinating the statewide observance of the National Day Without Child Care. The initiative aims to advocate for a fully funded child care system that supports working families and strengthens the economy. By designating this day, the resolution seeks to elevate the voices of educators, families, and providers, emphasizing the importance of investing in early childhood education as a vital component of Louisiana's infrastructure and future prosperity.
