Poverty Awareness Month

You have two opportunities to take action today. Both honor Martin Luther King, Jr.'s legacy and his struggle for economic justice for all races. 1) Sign our petition to raise the minimum wage and 2) attend a PIIN event calling on UPMC to treat it’s employees fairly and pay a living wage!

Food stamps help to lift millions of Americans – including children – out of poverty. Yet Congress is considering billions of dollars in cuts to this critical program. Take action today, tomorrow, and the rest of the month to stop them!
