Tell your Members of Congress what your Budget Priorities are!

The Unitarian Universalist Association says ...

To make up for increased expenses in homeland security, defense, and tax cuts, the president and subsequently many members of Congress are looking for ways to cut spending that would severely impact domestic human needs programs including health care (Medicaid in particular), community and inner-city development, environmental protection, education, and others.

As people of faith and witnesses to the vast inequities that exist today in the United States, we must call upon our elected representatives to serve the common good of our nation through the creation of a federal budget that prioritizes the well-being of all and the equitable distribution of resources to the most vulnerable in our society.

See the Washington Office website for links to help you and your congregation take action, including ideas for worship services, letter-writing, lobby visits, and other local organizations that may be organizing in your area at http://www.uua.org/uuawo/new/article.php?id=569.
