Tick Tock On the Clock: Big Change Coming Soon with the 119th Congress

The Republican Congressional majority is talking about quickly moving reconciliation packages, legislation that could dramatically impact millions of lives. They would drastically limit access to healthcare and food assistance for millions of people, dramatically shift the tax code to further benefit wealthy individuals and corporations, heavily invest in border militarization and immigration enforcement, and reverse historic gains in promoting clean energy.   

We Seek a Just Migration System

The World We Seek guides the efforts of the Friends Committee on National Legislation. Whether through our team of expert lobbyists meeting with policymakers on Capitol Hill or our grassroots network of passionate advocates building power for the voices of people across the country, these words form a foundation for our work.

A Year of Bold Advocacy and Faithful Witness

As 2024 draws to a close, we are pausing to reflect on the remarkable strength and dedication of this community. You have played a critical role in connecting the concerns of Friends in your meeting or church with advocacy with federal policymakers. I am so grateful to work with all of you.  

Through prayerful listening and active participation, you have shown up in powerful ways – speaking out for peace, justice, and integrity in our local and national communities.
