We're doing the same. I have dual citizenship with the UK, although my wife and daughter (who is queer, the biggest reason why we're leaving) can't. They can't stay there on family visas forever, but I am hoping that by the time I have exhausted renewals, it will either be safe to return or they can legitimately request asylum.
Sounds like a solid plan — best of luck to your family.
The plan we're building sees us moving out of AZ and to a blue state near the Canadian border. From there I brush the dust off my degree while my wife ensures she has what she needs to continue working as a nurse in Canada. UK is in consideration, too. Germany after that given their pathways to welcoming immigrants — especially in medical or in university. Alas, those latter options are so much harder to pull off, especially when we're also trying to be near uncles and grandparents for the kid's sake especially. Here's to hoping for asylum if it really does get that bad.
Good luck to your family as well.
