CAG Issues - Invest in America's Future

WV-Citizen Action is an affiliate of USAction whose goals include building power by uniting people locally and nationally, on-the-ground and online, to win a more just and progressive America. Through our partnership with USAction, we help create the nation's leading progressive coalitions, making democracy work by organizing issue and election campaigns to improve people's lives.

One of our main current priorities is helping to promote USAction's Invest in America's Future. That means...

  • a guarantee of quality, affordable health coverage, with good benefits and equitable access to health services, for everyone in our nation
  • a reversal of the Bush administration's upside-down economic priorities, which have included drastic budget cuts for critical human-needs services and irresponsible tax breaks for millionaires and corporate interests
  • an end to the war in Iraq, no war with Iran, and the establishment of a progressive national-security worldview
  • new commitments to strengthen public education and promote safe, clean energy to end our dependence on oil

TrueMajorityAction, a project of USAction, organizes activists online to support Investment in America's Future.
