March 2025 Featured UUSJ Actions

No cuts to human needs programs

Take Action: Tell Both your Senators and your Representative what you think

The legislative proposals in both chambers articulate a massive restructure of our approach to human needs policy and programs in the U.S. They authorize a massive and unconscionable transfer of wealth from people of humble means to wealthy and billionaire Americans. They do so in the form of resource and program reductions for the vulnerable and needy, paired with a bonanza of tax cuts for the greedy.

The House proposal would cut $880 billion from Medicaid and $230 billion from SNAP (food stamps)—yes, billions—to give $1.1 trillion—yes, trillion—in tax breaks to America’s 1% wealthiest individuals.

Oppose immigration harms in the Budget Reconcialtion process

Take Action; See the list of Senators and Representatives who need to hear your concern

As Unitarian Universalists, we believe all people have inherent worth and dignity, should be treated with respect and compassion, and have fundamental civil and human rights and protections under U.S. and international law. Therefore, UUSJ opposes the administration’s approach to immigration, particularly family separations and mass deportations, and especially at the cost of human needs policy and programs.

Let’s urge Congress to show mercy and compassion and refuse to fund mass roundups, detentions, and deportations.
