Re: “Budget cuts are hurting food banks. Time to step up” (Aug. 27, Opinion):
It’s certainly time to step up. Because the funds cuts take impact, we, as caring and anxious residents, can do much more to assist struggling households, seniors or individuals with disabilities put meals on the desk. We will do greater than donating canned items or cash or volunteering our time at our native meals banks.
We will e-mail our members of Congress, schedule conferences and meet head to head with our members of Congress in addition to attend any city halls they’ve. Members of Congress shall be on the town by means of the month of August. This supplies a major alternative to allow them to learn about insurance policies that matter most to you, construct relationships and maintain them accountable.
