Dear State Government Affairs Professionals, JCRC Directors, and Other Interested Parties:
JFNA is assisting with two timely funding request letters that are circulating the House of Representatives this week. The first is a bi-partisan letter, drafted by Representatives Bill Pascrell (D-NJ) and Peter King (R-NY), requesting $25 million for the Nonprofit Security Grant Program in FY 2016. The second is a bi-partisan letter, drafted by Debbie Wasserman Schultz (D-FL) and Ileana Ros-Lehtinen (R-FL), requesting $5 million for the Holocaust Survivor Assistance Fund.
We ask that you reach out to your House delegation to seek their signatures on these letters. The deadline for both letters is this week.
For questions and feedback about the Nonprofit Security Grant Program funding letter, contact Robert B. Goldberg, Senior Director, Legislative Affairs, at 202-736-5881 or rob.goldberg@jewishfederations.org.
For questions and feedback about the Holocaust Survivor Assistance Fund letter, please contact Shelley Rood, Senior Legislative Associate, at 202-736-5880 or shelley.rood@jewishfederations.org.
Thank you for your quick follow-up. Please keep us informed about your advocacy efforts.
William C. Daroff
Senior Vice President, Public Policy &
Director of the Washington Office
