DC 1707“Ben Kallos knows that every child needs early education to lay the groundwork for a life of equal opportunity. He places great importance on education and has advocated with me for public center-based child care and Universal Pre-K,” said Executive Director Raglan George, Jr.  “Ben Kallos is among the progressive candidates who support baselining public child care in the budget and restoring child care opportunities.  We are confident that voters in the City Council District 5 have an excellent candidate to represent them in the City Council.”
