Ask Your Representative to Cosponsor H.R. 82 Social Security and Fairness Act of 2021 Representative Rodney Davis, R-IL, introduced H.R. 82 Social Security Fairness Act of 2021 on January 4, 2021 to repeal the Windfall Provision (WEP) and Government Pension Offset (GPO).

To ensure the bill is guaranteed a vote on the House floor, advocacy groups are working to increase the list of cosponsors to 290 or more. Ask your representative to join the growing list of cosponsors today!
Sign Petition Urging Governor to Defund Calbright The California Community Colleges proudly educate the largest population of higher education students in the country, yet they are perpetually underfunded. The 2020-21 state budget further exacerbated the situation with billions of dollars in deferments. As preparations for the 2021-22 budget begin, please sign this letter urging Governor Newsom to follow the Legislature’s recommendation that Calbright College be eliminated and the funds redirected to the other 115 accredited California Community Colleges. With every community college conducting online courses and fighting for funding, this is not the time to keep throwing money at a failed experiment. |
