Wider Opportunities for Women (WOW) is hosting its second annual Blog Day, Wednesday May 26th, 2010: “America’s Budget Matters, So Does Yours.” The posts on HMPRG's about the impact of both the federal and state budget deficits and their impact on the aging community are only the beginning to an ongoing discussion of elder economic security, and we want to hear from you:
• Do you have anything to contribute to this conversation about the federal deficit?• About Illinois’ budget deficit?
• About cuts to social service programs in Illinois?
• About preserving Social Security?
• How do potential budget cuts affect you?
Please leave your comments below. HMPRG is working with WOW to make sure that your voice is heard, that the Federal Commission and the Illinois state government knows that their decisions affect you. Our country, and our state of Illinois, is in difficult times. Now is not a time to be quiet, but a time to advocate for your right to remain economically secure in your homes and communities as you age.
