Washington DC Poor People's Campaign

DC campaign of @unitethepoor movement to confront interlocking injustices including systemic racism, poverty, ecological devastation, the war economy and more.

[Washington DC Poor People's Campaign @WashingtonDCPPC]

Today, @brepairers @revdrbarber held a #moralmonday Rally in Washington, DC & across the nation as a moral response to yesterday’s White House “Rededicate 250” gathering, which promoted a distorted theology & religious nationalism being used to justify war & policy violence

[Fair Budget Coalition DC @FairBudgetDC]

Long overdue that DC taxes its highly concentrated wealth with a 3% Wealth Proceeds Tax.

No more "We don't have the resources to fund our safety net" "We can't help communities make ends meet in hard times" "Slash essential programs"

Let your Councilmember know you support this

We must challenge the wolf-like politicians, and we must challenge the white washing preachers b/c in every age God is looking for somebody to stand up and speak up.

Where are the other clergy? Where? But another crusader is Rev. Barber (Poor People Campaign and Moral Mondays).

As the D.C. Council finalizes the city's budget, homeless service advocates are demanding it reverse cuts to day centers, vouchers, and the social safety net. One way advocates suggest to fund the programs? A wealth tax.
