Western Center Weighs in on Congressional Super Committee
08/10/2011

Western Center asks for Super Committee selections who support a plan that balances cuts with revenue and protects programs serving the poor.  


Western Center joins other anti-hunger and anti-poverty advocates and safety-net program administrators to ask for Super Committee selections who can get behind a plan that balances cuts with revenue, both new and reinstated, and support a plan that gets America working again without putting the most vulnerable in harm's way. 

Below is a link to the letter we sent to Congresswoman Pelosi (D-California) who has yet to make her selections.  Also below are the selections already made. 

 

Please look for opportunities for Californians to weigh in with our Congressional Delegation soon. For more information about how Western Center is working with state and national leaders to protect critical programs that protect elderly, disabled and low-income Californians, contact our Sacramento staff.
