MARCH to City Hall TOGETHER
MOURN the Decision to Cut Support for the vulnerable
EXPECT Something More from Government 
WORK for A Better Pennsylvania for EVERYONE
WEAR BLACK!!!!

340,000 of Pennsylvania's most vulnerable were dealt a devastating blow when the state legislature decided to cut PA Supplemental Security Income by 22 million dollars.  These budget cuts will take affect February 1, 2010 and will drastically reduce food and housing security within an already-fragile sector of society.  What was allotted our neighbors before the cuts was not adequate and the disabled and the elderly were told by the state legislature that they deserve less.  To deal out these cuts was WRONG.  The poorest among us deserve better.  

Join us for a Funeral Procession where we will carry with us hope for different tomorrow.
