Lowering Costs and Investing in Students
<\/strong>As your state Senator, I helped deliver a bold 2025 state budget last year, to secure transformative investments for students, schools, and staff in District 6 and across Michigan. Along with raising per-pupil funding statewide and reducing school payroll burdens, we also:
<\/strong><\/p>\n

Expanded Free Breakfast and Lunch to All Students
<\/strong>Ensured that all Michigan public school students, including more than 50,000 attending Detroit and Redford Public Schools,<\/strong> could receive free breakfast and lunch for the \u201924-\u201925 school year
<\/strong><\/p>\n

Prepared More Kids for Kindergarten
<\/strong>Opened more opportunities for children to gain early insight into math, reading, social, and thinking skills by increasing Michigan\u2019s free Great Start Readiness Pre-K Program.
<\/strong><\/p>\n

Secured Resources to Help Every Student Thrive
<\/strong>Our funding formula equitably distributes funding to <\/strong>school districts<\/strong> so that we can ensure all of our kids get a high-quality education, no matter where they live. We also made important investments in before and after school programming to help students discover new opportunities.<\/p>\n

Supported our Teachers<\/strong>
Provided resources like the MI Future Educator <\/strong>Stipend and the Grow Your Own program<\/strong> to get more teachers in the classroom, ensuring our kids are receiving a world class education.<\/p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.27.3″ _module_preset=”default” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][et_pb_column _builder_version=”4.27.3″ _module_preset=”default” type=”4_4″ theme_builder_area=”post_content”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/senatedems.com\/cavanagh\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2025\/09\/Screenshot-2025-09-10-144640.png” _builder_version=”4.27.3″ _module_preset=”default” theme_builder_area=”post_content” title_text=”Screenshot 2025-09-10 144640″ hover_enabled=”0″ sticky_enabled=”0″][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.27.3″ _module_preset=”default” column_structure=”1_2,1_2″ theme_builder_area=”post_content”][et_pb_column _builder_version=”4.27.3″ _module_preset=”default” type=”1_2″ theme_builder_area=”post_content”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.3″ _module_preset=”default” theme_builder_area=”post_content” hover_enabled=”0″ sticky_enabled=”0″]

Giving Parents the Building Blocks <\/strong>They Need to Thrive
To provide much-needed financial relief to working families<\/strong> struggling to get by, Michigan Senate Democrats have introduced bold, transformative legislation to provide the \u201cBuilding Blocks\u201d Michigan needs to make raising kids more affordable for families in every corner of the state and give young kids the best start possible.<\/p>\n

Rx Kids: A Prescription for Improving Families\u2019 Physical and Economic Health<\/strong>
Rx Kids supports parents and babies by providing all pregnant moms in a community, regardless of income, with a no-strings-attached cash allowance of $1,500 during pregnancy and $500 each month throughout the baby\u2019s first year. Research shows that direct, cash support for new parents helps improve housing security, access to nutritious food, and maternal and child health.<\/strong> Our proposal will expand this program statewide to serve more families.<\/p>\n

Working Parents Tax Cut
<\/strong>My Senate Democratic colleagues and I recently proposed providing a tax cut of $5,500 for working families<\/strong> with children under the age of three. This Working Parents Tax Cut would help put more money in your pocket so you can afford the necessities, plan for the future, and give your kids a
better opportunity to succeed.<\/p>\n

Making Child Care More Affordable
<\/strong>One of the biggest expenses facing parents is childcare, and the problem isn\u2019t just negatively impacting families \u2014 it\u2019s dragging down our entire economy. To fix the crisis we\u2019re facing, we need a big, wholesale change to make child care affordable for families and sustainable for child care professionals and entrepreneurs. Our \u201cBuilding Blocks\u201d plan will do just that and help more families access the high-quality care they need to succeed.<\/strong><\/p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.27.3″ _module_preset=”default” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][et_pb_column _builder_version=”4.27.3″ _module_preset=”default” type=”4_4″ theme_builder_area=”post_content”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/senatedems.com\/cavanagh\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2025\/09\/Screenshot-2025-09-10-145355.png” _builder_version=”4.27.3″ _module_preset=”default” theme_builder_area=”post_content” title_text=”Screenshot 2025-09-10 145355″ align=”center” hover_enabled=”0″ sticky_enabled=”0″][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.27.3″ _module_preset=”default” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][et_pb_column _builder_version=”4.27.3″ _module_preset=”default” type=”4_4″ theme_builder_area=”post_content”][et_pb_button button_text=”View PDF” _builder_version=”4.27.3″ _module_preset=”default” theme_builder_area=”post_content” button_alignment=”center” hover_enabled=”0″ sticky_enabled=”0″ button_url=”https:\/\/senatedems.com\/cavanagh\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2025\/09\/Cavanagh-School_250722_Final.pdf”][\/et_pb_button][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
