Act Now to Save A Billion Dollars
Over 2006 our campaign secured an additional one billion dollars in anti-poverty funding, but because Congress failed to pass funding bills for the 2007 fiscal year, all of those increases could now be lost.
However, there is additional money that Congress can still distribute into key programs for the 2007 budget.
Act now to tell Congress that this money should go to fighting extreme poverty.
Making strides in the war against extreme poverty requires giving programs that work the resources they need. As we enter the new political environment in Washington, it’s critical that Democrats and Republicans work together to make this happen.
Tell your members of Congress to give people living in extreme poverty the assistance they need now.
