COALITION ON HUMAN NEEDS

The Coalition on Human Needs works to protect Congressionally approved funds from being frozen or rescinded by including enforceable instructions on how Congressionally approved funding must be spent, along with extending expiring funding to stop efforts to run out the clock. CHN has urged Congress to collectively assert their role and recognize that a deal is a deal - without the assurance that bipartisan spending legislation is adhered to, Congress is effectively giving up its Constitutional power of the purse. CHN supports including enforceable instructions (similar to the guardrails in S.2882) on how congressionally approved funding must be spent in any spending package, along with extending expiring funding to stop efforts to run out the clock, in any and all spending packages.
