EPPN: Urge US representatives to support anti-hunger legislationPosted Dec 9, 2014 |
[Episcopal Public Policy Network] This week, the House of Representatives is expected to vote on the Global Food Security Act of 2014 (H.R. 5656). The legislation will help millions of people who suffer from chronic food insecurity in developing countries.
The Episcopal Church is committed to fighting the injustice of extreme hunger and poverty. As our Baptismal Covenant reminds us, all human life must be valued, for we are children of God. Take a moment today to live out this call.
Go HERE to take action and tell your representative that you support the Global Food Security Act of 2014!
