1. For God's sake, PLEASE call! 1-800-459-1887

I will again post the words of Elie Wiesel...

"Our lives no longer belong to us alone; they belong to all those who need us desperately."

http://www.eliewieselfoundation.org/ElieWiesel/speech.html

And the words of the Rev. Dr. William J. Barber...

"But for God�s sake, don�t ever give up, because some child is depending on you, some family is hoping for a better day, some worker needs a breakthrough, the voiceless still need a voice, the poor still need an advocate, those in the margin still need to be mentioned, people who are down still need to be lifted, the hurt still need to be healed.

Use your life in the court of humanity to say �I WILL OBJECT UNTIL JUSTICE ROLLS DOWN LIKE WATER & RIGHTEOUSNESS LIKE A MIGHTY STREAM!"

minutes of your time you too can express you concern about budget cuts that effect the poor and gives more tax cuts that help the rich. B-)
