NDD United

Saving non-defense programs- such as public health, research, education and natural resources- that support growth, safety, and security for all Americans.

[NDD United @NDDUnited]

THANK YOU to all who’s tireless efforts helped spur Congress to #RaiseTheCaps on nondefense discretionary (NDD) spending, which is vital to the success of programs that serve all Americans. It was truly a team effort. Hats off to you all!!! #OMNIBUSWATCH2018

Nobody made a bigger impact or had as much fun doing it as Joel Packer. He was already a beloved institution at @edfunding and @NDDUnited by the time our paths crossed, but he always made time for everyone. A giant and a gem.

[NDD United @NDDUnited]

It is with a heavy heart that we announce the passing of one of our founding chairs, and former @edfunding Executive Director Joel Packer.

Joel was a dedicated advocate supporting education in this country - and played a critical role in designing efforts to #RaiseTheCaps #RIP

MUST READ from @debbieweinstein of @CoalitionHN! Congress needs to build on the progress made in key programs that support people with low incomes, not let the cycle of reductions begin again. That's why we must #RaiseTheCaps
