[Faith & Hunger] Hunger Action: Order Spitzer cards for $ for food, welfare benefits, health care

[Dunleamark at aol.com]

Dear Friends:
 
We are making a push to get Hunger Action's agenda included in Gov.-elect  
Spitzer's 2007-08 State of the State address and state budget proposals.
 
We have prepared holiday post cards to be sent to Spitzer on the themes of  
emergency food (HPNAP), universal health care, and a higher welfare grant.
 
Please let me know if you would like postcards to hand out at your program  
in the next few weeks - at community meetings, in food bags and holiday 
baskets,  mailings, church / temple services, union halls, etc. They are 4 by 6.25  
inches. Minimum order: 20.
 
The text is below. There will also be a drawing from our Children's  
Anti-Hunger Poster Project on the front side.
 
Thanks
 
Mark Dunlea

Dear Governor Elect Spitzer: 

Too many New Yorkers go hungry. Please increase funding for emergency  food 
(HPNAP) by $9.4 million. Enact a Food Policy Council. Expedite Food  Stamps

Welfare benefits have not been raised since 1990. We must do more to  help 
raise these families out of poverty. All the other democracies in the world  
have health care for all. It is time for NY to do the same. 

Sincerely,
