The Honorable Janice K. Brewer
Governor of Arizona
1700 W. Washington
Phoenix, AZ 85007

Dear Governor Brewer,

Congratulations on your election victory.  Your leadership is critical as the State faces unprecedented declines in revenue and many competing and compelling needs for State support.  As you address these challenges, and prioritize funding, we urge you to consider both the immediate and future benefits to Arizona.  We urge you to continue to invest State funds in the Department of Economic Security (DES) child care subsidy, a program that allows Arizonans with children to work, creates jobs in child care, supports small businesses and community agencies, and is essential to the infrastructure that workers and employers rely on.  Child care is critical to the Arizona’s economy.
