Senator Santarsiero Statement Calling for Head Start Funding
BUCKS COUNTY− May 2, 2025 − The following statement is attributable to Senator Steve Santarsiero (D-10) in support of the Federal Government funding Head Start and Early Head Start Programs:
“Hundreds of young children in Bucks County are at risk of losing critical school readiness services this month because the Federal Government is recklessly withholding funds for Head Start and Early Head Start programs here.
It’s a disgrace. Congress needs to act now to make sure the Federal Government restores funding immediately.
The Bucks County Intermediate Unit #22 has faithfully provided these proven services to thousands of families for decades and stands ready to continue this work for the long-term success of our students.”
