The U.S. House of Representatives just stripped funding for the federal Partnership for Sustainable Communities. The Senate will consider funding for the Partnership next Thursday. NOW is the time to tell your Senators to maintain funding for this important program.
These are tough economic times, which makes it even more important to keep the innovative programs that put federal dollars to good use rebuilding our local economies, strengthening our communities, and creating necessary jobs.
Earlier this year when the Partnership was under threat, your voices made a real difference and funding was preserved. Now we need your voices to be heard even louder.
Tell your Senators: Protect funding for the Partnership for Sustainable Communities.
Make sure that Congress knows we will not accept shortsighted cuts that sacrifice the health of our communities.
From connecting affordable housing with jobs to turning dilapidated lots into vibrant downtown centers, the Partnership is making a difference in our communities, where we are hurting the most.
Please tell your lawmakers not to take away crucial opportunities for our communities.
This is the time when we need your voice the most. Thank you for all that you do.
