SUMMARY:Hill Event on proposed Social Security Cuts 01/28/20 11:00am-12:00pm
DESCRIPTION:Please join The Arc of the United States\, Center for American Progress\, Community Legal Services of Philadelphia\, Little Lobbyists\, Shriver Center for Poverty Law\, and Social Security Works next Tuesday\, January 28\, from 11:00 a.m. – 12:00 p.m.. ET for briefing on the Proposed Rule on Continuing Disability Reviews.  \nJanuary 28\, 2020  \n11:00 am-12:00 pm  \n385 Russell Senate Office Building \nThe Trump administration is attacking Social Security and demanding that 2.6 million people with disabilities fill out complex and unnecessary paperwork and cutting benefits. If the administration’s rule is enacted\, we’re facing a $2.6 billion cut by 2029 to Social Security benefits for people with disabilities and chronic conditions\, including seniors\, children\, and people with cancer. The administration is increasing the number of onerous continuing disability reviews and resurrecting the playbook of the 1980s when a dramatic increase in random reviews lead to tens of thousands of people losing their lives. These cuts to the Social Security program resulted in a massive outcry from the public and both chambers of Congress and were repealed. As we did back then\, we will fight back. Join us to tell the Administration that we will support NO SOCIAL SECURITY CUTS! \nParticipants: Members of Congress\, People with Disabilities\, Family Members\, Experts on Social Security \nThe event will be livestreamed at https://www.facebook.com/socialsecurityworks \nPlease contact rcokley@americanprogress.org  with any questions or accessibility needs or concerns. \nPromote on Twitter using #NoSocialSecurityCuts\n \nNote from CHN:  \nYou can still comment in opposition to this proposed rule – Deadline: Friday\, January 31 at midnight.  \nBackground and simple links to submit comments are here.  \n\n\n	Related

SUMMARY:First Focus: Cutting Child Poverty in Half Within a Decade: A Congressional Briefing
DESCRIPTION:First Focus: Cutting Child Poverty in Half Within a Decade: A Congressional Briefing\nHosted by the U.S. Child Poverty Action Group\, First Focus\, the American Academy of Pediatrics \, and the National Prevention Science Coalition to Improve Lives\, in collaboration with Congresswoman Barbara Lee\, Congresswoman Lucille Roybal-Allard\, and Congressman Danny Davis  \nChildren continue to disproportionately experience poverty in the United States\, and are 62 percent more likely to experience poverty than adults. Yet while the U.S. child poverty rate remains stubbornly high\, there is no long-term national strategy\, or even a national dialogue\, to address child poverty in the U.S. and the negative outcomes associated with it. We know it does not have to be this way. When countries prioritize their children\, it results in lower child poverty rates and improved economic outcomes for all of society. \nIn response to a mandate from Congress\, the National Academies of Science\, Engineering\, and Medicine released a landmark consensus study on child poverty in the United States. This study included analysis of the economic\, health\, and social costs of child poverty to our society\, as well as the effectiveness of current anti-poverty programs–including international\, federal\, state\, and local efforts–to reduce child poverty. Based on this analysis\, the study committee issued a set of evidence-based policy recommendations about how to cut the national child poverty rate in half within a decade. \nConcurrent with the release of this study\, the U.S. Child Poverty Action Group\, a partnership of over 20 national organizations\, launched a national campaign\, End Child Poverty U.S.\, to garner collective action in calling upon the federal government to make child poverty a priority through setting a national target to cut our child poverty rate in half within 10 years. \nPlease join the U.S. Child Poverty Action Group\, First Focus\, the American Academy of Pediatrics\, and the National Prevention Science Coalition To Improve Lives for a Congressional briefing\, Cutting Child Poverty in Half Within a Decade\, to hear from leading experts on this new landmark study and learn how Members of Congress and other stakeholders can utilize its findings to reduce child poverty and its negative consequences in the United States. \nOpening Remarks \n\nBruce Lesley\, President\, First Focus Campaign for Children\n\nModerator \n\nJohn K. Roman\, Ph.D.\, Senior Fellow\, Economics\, Justice and Society Group\, NORC\, University of Chicago and Co-Director of the National Prevention Science Coalition to Improve Lives\n\nPanelists \n\nChristine-James Brown\, President and CEO\, Child Welfare League of America and NAS Study Committee Member\, Building an Agenda to Reduce the Number of Children in Poverty by Half in 10 Years\nDr. Benard Dreyer\, Professor of Pediatrics and Director of Developmental-Behavioral Pediatrics\, NYU School of Medicine\, Director of Pediatrics\, Bellevue Hospital Center\, Past President of the American Academy of Pediatrics\, NAS Study Committee Member\, Building an Agenda to Reduce the Number of Children in Poverty by Half in 10 Years\nDr. Angela Diaz MD\, PhD\, Director\, Mount Sinai Adolescent Health Center and Professor\, Department of Pediatrics\, Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai\n\n\n\n	Related

SUMMARY:CEPR: Screening of "I\, A Black Woman\, Resist"
DESCRIPTION:March 11\, 2019\n3:00 PM \nHosts:\nRep. Ro Khanna and Rep. Raúl Grijalva \nSponsors:\nThe Center for Economic and Policy Research\, the Washington Office on Latin America and the U.S. Network for Democracy in Brazil.\n \nLocation:\nRayburn House Office Building\, Washington\, DC\nRoom 2325 \nPlease join us for a screening of the short documentary “I\, A Black Woman\, Resist” followed by a discussion with two leading experts on racism and feminism in Brazil about the life and legacy of Afro-Brazilian leader Marielle Franco\, a staunch critic of police brutality and state-sanctioned violence who was assassinated on March 14\, 2018. \nDeeply rooted in the longstanding tradition of Black Feminist activism in Brazil\, Marielle Franco dedicated herself to speaking truth to power and to uplifting and empowering marginalized communities in Brazil up until the final moments of her life. Featuring a first-hand account from Dr. Barber of the last event that Marielle attended at Casa das Pretas (Black Women’s House) on the night of her assassination\, this short documentary seeks to raise awareness\, build consciousness\, and facilitate dialogue around the necessity of transnational solidarity in the fight against racism and the global struggle for Black Lives. \nCo-Director Dr. Sharrelle Barber will speak and answer questions about her inspiration to create this documentary that bears witness to Marielle Franco’s life. Dr. Gladys Mitchell-Walthour will discuss the broader context of human rights and democracy in Brazil and the status of the Afro-Brazilian rights movement at this challenging juncture in the country’s history. \nPlease RSVP and direct questions to Marilyn.Zepeda@mail.house.gov.\n \n\n\n	Related
