A unique opportunity for advocates in Washington and around the country to learn together about President Obama's FY 2011 budget.
Bob Greenstein is a much-celebrated federal budget expert. A recipient of many prestigious awards, including in 2008 the Heinz Award for Public Policy for his work to "improve the economic outlook of many of America's poorer citizens," he will provide an overview of the Obama budget and the short- and long-term challenges in working to meet the needs of low-income people and restore the nation's economic health.
Deborah Weinstein has tracked human needs spending at the state and federal levels for 30 years. Each year she helps advocates and policy-makers to understand the impact of budgets on low-income people, why it matters for our nation's future, and effective actions advocates can take.
