Dear Hunger Action Friends and  Colleagues: 
Please join us on Tuesday, March 4th for our  Legislative Education & Action 
Day in Albany.  Join us to fight  for: 
Þ Universal Health Care; Supporting  expansion of Medicaid and CHP 
Þ Raising the Welfare Grant;  improve Welfare to Work 
Þ Real Jobs for Low-Income New  Yorkers; and 
Þ Fair Taxes, not service  cuts 
We will also be urging the legislature to support funding  for emergency food 
programs, affordable housing ($400  million for Housing Opportunities 
Program), education and  training opportunities, and affordable  childcare. 
With a projected $4 to 6 billion  budget deficit, we need to make sure that 
essential services are  maintained!   
Please take the time to come with us, make your voice  heard at the State 
Capitol, and take our message to where the decisions are  being made!  Let’s pack 
the buses  to Albany and tell our legislators that we demand economic 
security for all New  Yorkers! 
Please call us at (212) 741-8192 or  (518)434-7371 or fax  (212) 741-7236 the 
enclosed  sign-up form to RSVP, to learn more about transportation options 
from your area  and so that we can arrange legislative appointments for your  
group! 
Also enclosed, please find other steps you can take to  help end hunger in 
New York, including: 
· Join the Empire State Economic  Security Campaign (ES2) 
· Become a member of Hunger Action  Network 
Please take action and send your competed forms back to  Hunger Action today! 
 See you on  March 4th! 
In Solidarity, 
Mark  Dunlea
