Fully Involved: Urgent! Ask Congress to Save AFG and SAFER Before Feb 23!
NVFC

Your Action Needed to Help Save AFG and SAFER! 

 

If Congress does not act, AFG and SAFER grants will cease to exist on September 30. The next big opportunity Congress has to pass legislation to save AFG and SAFER will be any funding bill they assemble before the current government funding deadline of March 8.

 

Rep. Mike Bost (R-IL) and Rep. Pascrell (D-NJ) are leading a letter between now and February 23 addressed to the leadership in the House of Representatives asking that the reauthorizations of AFG, SAFER and the U.S. Fire Administration be included in the upcoming funding bill. It is crucial that as many Members of Congress as possible sign this letter. Your Member of Congress needs to hear from you to get them to sign this letter! 

 

Please save AFG and SAFER by using the "Contact Congress Now" button below to ask your Member of Congress to sign Rep. Bost and Pascrell's letter by February 23.
