Deadline Extended: Sign On to U rge Congress to Protect Families’ Access to Public Benefits
Congress is poised to make cuts to families' access to services including healthcare, nutrition resources, and more. In partnership with the National Immigration Law Center and the Center for Law and Social Policy, we’re collecting national, state, and local organizational sign-ons for a letter urging Congress to protect families’ access to public benefits. By signing your organization onto the letter, you are formally expressing your organization's support. The letter will be shared in a variety of contexts, including with congressional offices, journalists, and on social media. We’ve extended the deadline for organizations to tell Congress to protect families by signing your organization onto our letter by this Friday, March 14 . Please share widely with your networks.

New Resource: Protecting the Privacy of Immigrants and Their Families
The Trump administration’s attacks on immigrants and their families have left many afraid to apply for health care, food, housing and other assistance. Immigrant families are concerned that personal information provided to state and local agencies could be used for immigration enforcement. A reference table [[link removed]] now on our site provides accurate information on the privacy protections in place by federal benefits program. Thanks to our partners at the National Immigration Law Center, The Center for Law and Social Policy, Legal Council for Health Justice, the Shriver Center for Poverty Law, the Food Research & Action Center, and the National Housing Law Project for their work on this resource.
