The Coalition on Human Needs launched this project to fight for a federal budget that protects services and benefits for low and moderate income Americans.
For millions of Americans, the door to opportunity may be swinging shut.
The federal budget should express a practical commitment to build a nation in which every American, young and old alike, is free from hunger, is adequately housed, and has access to health care. Yet increasingly we fear the opportunities to rise out of poverty are shrinking, and our children will have less of a chance to make a good life than earlier generations. As the gap between rich and poor widens, the upward mobility that has been the very hallmark of American progress is at risk. These trends are not beyond our control.
