Deadly cuts to Medicaid, SNAP, Affordable Housing, and Head Start are coming our way… unless we act!

Join the Maryland Poor People’s Campaign a discussion of the situation and direct actions we can take to turn the tides. Register NOW at mdppc.org/april !

This is a discussion inspired and informed by "The High Moral Stakes of the Policy Battles Raging in Washington," a recent report by Repairers of the Breach and partners.

Per the new report from @BRepairers: Republican are proposing drastic cuts to Medicaid, SNAP, Head Start, & many other programs that support poor & working families.

There are currently 21% of Marylanders on Medicaid, 11% receive food stamps, and almost 9,000 children are enrolled in Head Start.

Call Congress and say NO to cuts that would dramatically increase poverty in Maryland & across the US.

Did you know? Martin Luther King Jr.'s work for racial and economic justice was informed not by Communism but by the Gospel of Jesus Christ. (Read Dr. King’s Sept. 30, 1962 sermon, "Can A Christian Be a Communist?")

The Poor People’s Campaign: A National Call for Moral Revival is continuing Dr. King’s moral movement for economic justice. Join us!

Did you know? Martin Luther King Jr. strictly disavowed the secularism of communism. The inspiration for his quest for racial and economic justice was actually the Gospel of Jesus Christ. (Find a transcript of Dr. King’s September 30, 1962 sermon, "Can A Christian Be a Communist?")

In 1968, Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and many others called for a “revolution of values” in America. They sought to build a broad, fusion movement that could unite poor and impacted communities across the country. Their name was a direct cry from the underside of history: The Poor People’s Campaign. Today, the Poor People’s Campaign: A National Call for Moral Revival has picked up this unfinished work. Join us!
