It's time to save our safety net. The DC City Council has begun deliberation on the budget. Under Mayor Fenty's current proposal, over half of the cuts fall on human services.

It's not too late to try and change course!

The Coalition for Community Investment has developed a website with a petition calling on Councilmembers to save our safety net. Please help us spread the word about this petition so we can show widespread community support for protecting critical safety net services.

Here's the website: www.SaveOurSafetyNet.com

Here's who to tell:
- Your professional network
- Your social circle
- Your organization's action alert network
- Blog about it, tweet about it, post it to Facebook
