Deadline to sign on is tomorrow Wednesday, March 12, but the website will remain open for signatures through Thursday the 13th.
Please sign your organization on to the letter today!
Over 1,800 organizations who have already signed a letter in support of increasing the THUD 302(b) allocation! Some more background from NLIHC:
The House and Senate Committees on Appropriations will soon decide how much funding each appropriations subcommittee will receive in FY15. This funding allocation for subcommittees, called the 302(b), will determine how much funding is available for HUD programs in FY15. WHY THIS IS IMPORTANT It is critical that the Transportation, Housing and Urban Development, and Related Agencies (THUD) Subcommittees in the House and Senate receive 302(b) allocations that are at the highest possible levels. Adequate 302(b) allocations will help ensure that the THUD Subcommittees have the resources they need to fully fund all housing programs. HOW YOU CAN TAKE ACTION House and Senate appropriators need to hear from you! Join housing, community development, and transportation advocates around the country by signing a letter urging the highest possible 302(b) allocations. Last year, over 2,400 organizations signed on in support of increasing the THUD 302(b) allocation. Members of Congress noted the significance of the letter, and it made a positive impact on the amount of funding available for housing and transportation programs. Help make a difference in FY15 by joining this year’s effort!
