    Washington State Legislators people not the federal government.

    Just want to be sure we breaking out the pitchforks and pointing them at the right people. (But lets be honest, no way in hell the federal government would fund a program aiming at educating disadvantaged children in this current climate.)

    This sucks. Hopefully they’ll keep the program going. Our local Imagination Library is run through a small non-profit and they have fundraisers with small and corporate donations. They’ve even partnered up with the local hospital to sign kids up automatically when they’re born. It’s such a great program.

    This is a shame. My kid got books front the IL secret month till they were five. They are still their favorite books.
