Faith leaders, service providers and advocates join members of Congress in holding a rally and press conference opposing the House budget plan.

The Friends Committee on National Legislation expressed disappointment that the Senate failed to amend the filibuster rules allowing for final passage of federal voting rights reforms.
FCNL is deeply disappointed over Congress’ decision to omit a critical provision providing compensation to victims of nuclear weapons testing and production from the FY24 (NDAA).
On July 24, 54 organizations from across the political spectrum sent a letter to each member of the House of Representatives commending the House for including in the annual defense spending bill a measure to repeal the 2001 Authorization of Use of Military Force (AUMF) .
FCNL works alongside many other organizations to foster bipartisan action on climate change. Our goals of growing respectful relationships with members of Congress at the grassroots level are shared by the Citizens’ Climate Lobby (CCL).
The letter was signed by over 70 national and international organizations, including Amnesty International USA, Norwegian Refugee Council, Human Rights Watch, Oxfam America, Win Without War, National Council of Churches, Just Foreign Policy, Demand Progress, Quincy Institute for Responsible Statecraft, IfNotNow, Al Haq, and Eyewitness Palestine.
War is Not the Answer. Love Thy Neighbor, No Exceptions.
