We would like to highlight the urgency and importance of this request, the proposed cuts should be taken seriously and action by all counties is needed. Please review the FY 17-18 budget toolkit resources related to the proposed budget in House Bill 218. The resource links can be found on CCAP’s Legislative Action Center. There you will find: talking points, sample letters to the editor, sample resolutions for counties, and a chart outlining specific line items for which we are trying to collect county impact. Even if you cannot advocate directly, these resources will be helpful in sharing county impact information with your commissioners so they can advocate on behalf of your county.
