Letter to House Chairman Obey
May 4, 2007
The Honorable Robert C. Byrd Chairman, Committee on Appropriations United States Senate 311 Hart Senate Office Building Washington, D.C. 20510
Dear Chairman Byrd:
The undersigned education, training, disability, public health, medical research, child welfare organizations and labor unions representing the full range of stakeholders in the programs of the Departments of Education, Health and Human Services and Labor, urge you to ensure that the final FY 2008 302b allocation for the House and Senate Labor, Health and Human Services, Education Appropriations Subcommittees reflects at least a $14 billion increase above the FY 2007 level for these critically important programs. This amount would restore these programs to the FY 2005 level, a high water mark for many, and appropriately account for three years of inflation and population growth to maintain service levels and purchasing power.
The programs and services administered by the Departments of Health and Human Services, Education, and Labor serve a broad range of constituencies and needs. However, they all share a common, fundamental goal of strengthening this nation by investing in and improving the quality of life of its people, especially the most vulnerable. Unfortunately, the FY 2006 Labor, HHS and Education appropriations bill was cut by $1.6 billion. Congress worked to restore some of those cuts in the FY 2007 Joint Resolution but many programs still remain far below their FY 2005 level, and others lost all funding. The President’s FY 2008 budget request continues or deepens cuts for most of the programs in the Labor, HHS, and Education Appropriations bill. America cannot sustain its global scientific and economic leadership, national security and citizens’ health and well-being without increasing these investments.
While our organizations represent a wide array of domestic priorities, we are united in our effort to increase discretionary funding for health, education, labor enforcement, job training and social services programs by at least $14 billion as the budget process moves forward. This is essential to sustain the well-being and prosperity of our nation.
To respond to this letter, please contact Dr. Marcia Mabee, Executive Director, Coalition for Health Funding: 703-709-3001, or Dr. Edward Kealy, Executive Director, Committee for Education Funding: 202-383-0083.
