Protect Our Safety Programs Security, Veterans' benefits, Medicaid, Medicare, SNAP and other social safety net programs are at risk of being cut from the federal budget. But the safety of our people and our children are not partisan issues. They represent the values that make us who we are as a country, and they support the dignity, health, and safety of all Americans.
To Congress, our message is clear: Stop playing politics with our community’s future.
These fundamental values should never be bargaining chips as elected officials shape federal policies and agencies. The quality of life of our elderly, our children, our veterans, and our most vulnerable neighbors are non-negotiable when it comes to cuts. These programs are #AsAmericanAs our flag. are as American as our democracy, the Constitution, and yes — even apple pie.

STOP RACISM
Join us in the war against the racial disparities that are still too prevalent in America.
In the wake of nationwide protests against systemic racism in 2020, many corporations and institutions publicly committed to being more diverse, equitable, and inclusive. Five years later and some are starting to backtrack without ever meeting promises made. As businesses reverse their commitments, it is time to hold them accountable. NAACP issued the Black Consumer Advisory to inform and caution Black consumers about the ongoing and intentional rollback of nationwide diversity, equity, and inclusion commitments.
