In light of Gov. Abbott's most recent stunt, this piece on chaos in our immigration system by Anika Forrest, FCNL leg director for domestic policy, and Sarah Johnson, director of @FriendsPlaceDC in @thehill is, sadly, very timely. https://t.co/1Y0HBnR3rE

A timely piece by Anika Forrest, FCNL’s legislative director for domestic policy, and Sarah Johnson, director of @FriendsPlaceDC for @thehill: “The immigration chaos we speak of is the chaos we created” https://t.co/1Y0HBnRBhc

For my #Quaker friends: @FriendsPlaceDC (formerly William Penn House), now run by @FCNL, is part of the volunteer network, and providing hospitality to some of these migrants. Donate to this link or to @FriendsPlaceDC to support this work.

From yesterday: FCNL is proud to join over 50 organizations urging @POTUS to release his administration’s new policy for using lethal force outside of declared war zones.

The American public deserves to know who is being killed in its name and why. https://t.co/iC8xE8Dhcn

An expansion of the Child Tax Credit--proven to slash poverty--would cost $12 billion per year, according to @CenterOnBudget, yet CTC expansion wasn't included in the omnibus.

Meanwhile, lawmakers approved $45 billion more than what the president had requested for the Pentagon.

A century-old work of art, which took more than six months to restore, now hangs over a fireplace mantel in one of the @FriendsPlaceDC dining rooms where historic meetings for peace and planning for demonstrations took place over the last 50 years. https://t.co/GU9GwqL5eq
