Last Tuesday concluded our 2026 season of Summer Public Witness! We are so grateful to everyone who joined their voices to ours, spoke out for our marginalized siblings, and inspired passersby to advocate and work towards a better world! For eight weeks, we stood in solidarity with the immigrant commmunity and all those who will be affected by cruel budget cuts to life saving health, food, and housing programs.⁠

TAKE ACTION: URGE CONGRESS TO PROVIDE LIFE-SAVING INTERNATIONAL ASSISTANCE
The U.S. House of Representatives recently passed a funding bill that would cut more than $800 million from international programs that help families facing hunger, conflict and disaster. These programs provide lifesaving support like food, clean water, shelter, health care and other urgent help during emergencies. The Senate has not released its version of the bill yet, and final funding decisions have not been made. That means there is still time to ask Congress to protect lifesaving international assistance.

Take Action and urge Congress to support the highest possible funding for international humanitarian and development assistance to save lives and reduce poverty.
