Now is the time to act on the budget

From the GA Center for Nonprofits

What to do

Call your U.S. Representative and urge them not to accept the Senate version of the budget reconciliation bill without amendments that:
1. Protect vulnerable populations by restoring or preserving funding for food assistance, healthcare, housing, education, and childcare.
2. Avoid placing new, unfunded administrative burdens on states and nonprofits.
3. Retain programs that are essential to local jobs, services, and economic resilience in communities across your district, including Inflation Reduction Act funding.
Reach out to local officials to speak about the economic harm involved, and ask them to speak out against provisions that harm your nonprofit as an employer and contributor to the local economy.
Mobilize your network to do the same. Every voice counts!
