partnering with UUs for Social Justice (UUSJ) to sponsor a
letter-writing campaign in support of the RECLAIM Act 2017, a
bipartisan bill which would unlock existing funds to assist coal
communities. UUMFE and UUSJ believe this will provide a “Just
Transition” from a coal-dependent economy and will put people back
to work, leading to a more sustainable community and a brighter
future. I'd like to
continue the letter-writing activities with a table in the Social
Hall on April 15 and 22. We'll collect
the letters and send them to UUSJ gathered in a packet that they
will combine with letters from other congregations to hand-deliver
to our senators' offices. What do you think? Let me know if you'd
be able to help with the campaign, and make this part of our Earth
Day activities. <br class=""></p></div></div></div></blockquote></div></div></blockquote></div></div></blockquote><div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span>8.
