September 21, 2021
As Congress considers a continuing resolution (CR) to provide interim funding for fiscal year 2022, Catholic Charities USA (CCUSA) urges Congress to address funding needs for Afghan resettlement, disaster relief and social safety net programs to protect vulnerable people.
CCUSA and its 167 member agencies operate 3,000 sites across 50 states and the territories, providing disaster relief, refugee resettlement and social services to more than 15 million needy people in 2020.
