An Advocacy Statement by the Commission on Religion and Race, Eastern Pennsylvania Conference of the United Methodist Church Co-Chairpersons: the Rev
An Advocacy Statement by the Commission on Religion and Race, Eastern Pennsylvania Conference of The United Methodist Church Co-chairpersons: the Rev. Susan Worrell and the Rev. Alicia Julia-Stanley “We must not be enemies. Though passion may have strained, it must not break our bonds of affection. The mystic chords of memory will swell when again touched, as surely they will be, by the better angels of our nature.” ~ Abraham Lincoln, First Inaugural Address February 10, 2021 An open letter to select members of the United States Congress from Pennsylvania: Rep. John Joyce Rep. Mike Kelly Rep. Glenn Thompson Rep. Guy Reschenthaler Rep. Scott Perry Rep. Lloyd Smucker Rep. Dan Meuser Rep. Fred Keller As a nation, we stand at a dangerous precipice. We are witnessing a moment in history when an impeached former U.S. President is being tried by the U.S. Senate for inciting a violent, insurrectionist mob to attack the U.S. Capitol and threaten the lives of his Vice-President and members of the U.S. Congress. The former President urged and effectively unleashed the mob’s vengeance and fury against our elected public officials for standing up for our U.S. Constitution, the equal rights of all American voters, and the rights of states to have free and fair elections. The events of January 6, 2021, would not have happened without the echoes of assent you and others gave to Donald Trump’s incendiary words, the credibility you gave to his lies, and the supportive wall you built around him that continues to undermine dedicated leaders and departments of the Federal government.

Rural Hospital Bonus Payment
November 13, 2020 The Honorable Alex M. Azar II Secretary U.S. Department of Health and Human Services 200 Independence Avenue, SW Washington, DC 20201 Dear Secretary Azar: As you continue to address the provision of health care during the COVID-19 public health emergency, we ask that the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) resolve rural physician training issues that have been exacerbated by COVID-19. While HHS has taken important steps to shore up the health care system, rural physician training remains at risk. Rural hospitals have been significantly impacted by revenue losses due to lower patient volumes as a result of the public health emergency, and without Federal action, we are concerned that some may be forced to discontinue their physician training programs. In an effort to address this concern, we ask that you support these important programs by releasing targeted support from the Provider Relief Fund established in the CARES Act to fund rural hospitals that train physicians and commit to maintaining these training programs for at least three years. The Government Accountability Office (GAO) has reported that “rural training sites may incur higher costs because their training may have to utilize multiple training sites—such as community hospitals or rural health clinics—in order to meet accreditation requirements for resident rotations and patient case-mix. The added administrative work of coordinating with other sites to provide these resources can be a challenge.” Additionally, the data shows that training in rural areas increases the likelihood of practice in rural areas and is associated with a two- to three-fold increased likelihood of rural practice.

December 4,2020 the Honorable Mitch
December 4,2020 The Honorable Mitch McConnell The Honorable Charles Schumer Majority Leader Minority Leader U.S. Senate U.S. Senate Washington, DC 20510 Washington, DC 20510 The Honorable Nancy Pelosi The Honorable Kevin McCarthy Speaker Minority Leader U.S. House of Representatives U.S. House of Representatives Washington, DC 2051 5 Washington, DC 20515 Dear Majority Leader McConnell, Minority Leader Schumer, Speaker Pelosi, and Minority Leader McCarthy, In March of this year economic shutdowns hit communities across the country. By passing the CARES Act, Congress acted quickly to respond to the health threat we were yet to fully understand and a shutdown with an unknown end date. At the time, December 31, 2020 was believed to be an appropriate expiration date for numerous emergency measures, including Section 4013, the suspension of Troubled Debt Restructuring (TDR) classification of loans. However, with the end of the year quickly approaching and millions of businesses still in need of relief an extension of Section 4013 along with further forbearance for lenders is critical to our recovery and the survival of businesses in every state of the country. The suspension of TDR classifications has alleviated institutions from an onerous process that in this unique environment would unnecessarily drain their capital accounts and ultimately decrease access to credit for consumers and small businesses in the midst of this exceptional economic downturn. The provision has allowed all financial institutions, particularly those holding commercial mortgages, to modify COVID-19 impacted loans, giving businesses the ability to stay afloat, and substantially increasing the capability of financial institutions to work with their customers so they may recover from the shutdowns.

May 11, 2020 the Honorable Nancy Pelosi the Honorable Kevin
May 11, 2020 The Honorable Nancy Pelosi The Honorable Kevin McCarthy Speaker Minority Leader U.S. House of Representatives U.S. House of Representatives Washington, D.C. 20515 Washington, D.C. 20515 Dear Speaker Pelosi and Leader McCarthy, We are writing in support of the calls for a $49.95 billion infusion of federal funding to state departments of Transportation (DOTs) in the next COVID-19 response legislation. Our transportation system is essential to America’s economic recovery, but it is facing an immediate need as the COVID-19 pandemic significantly impacts states’ transportation revenues. With negotiations for the next COVID-19 relief package underway, we write to convey our strong support that future legislation includes a provision to address the needs of highway and bridge projects. With millions of Americans following “stay-at-home” orders, many state governments are facing losses in revenues across the board. These State DOTs are not exempt from these losses but operate with unique funding circumstances by having their own revenue shortfalls. Projections are showing decreases in state motor fuel tax and toll receipts as vehicle traffic declines by 50 percent in most parts of the country due to work and travel restrictions. An estimated 30 percent average decline in state DOTs’ revenue is forecasted over the next 18 months. Some state DOTs could experience losses as high as 45 percent. Due to these grim realities, some states are unable to make contract commitments for basic operations such as salt and sand purchases for winter operations. Both short-term and long-term transportation projects that were previously set to move forward are being delayed, putting construction jobs at risk.

July 21, 2021 Dear Leaders of Democratic States
July 21, 2021 Dear Leaders of Democratic States: In the streets of Cuba, the people are bravely marching for a new day of freedom and demanding an end to the illegitimate, brutal Cuban dictatorship. After more than six decades of brutally oppressive rule, the Cuban people are risking their lives to loudly denounce the disastrous communist regime that has time and time again failed to promote and protect the general welfare of its citizens. The people are shouting “libertad,” and demanding freedom, democracy and human rights. As the Cuban people risk their lives for freedom, the world must stand with them in this critically important moment. As the democratically-elected leaders of the world’s free countries, we write to you today to fervently implore you to take action in support of the Cuban people and their democratic aspirations. It is time to finally end the evil and murderous reign of the communist, illegitimate Cuban regime that has murdered, tortured and oppressed for far too long. In concerted solidarity with the Cuban people, we believe there are four essential actions that we all must take immediately to promote freedom for the Cuban people and place further pressure on the corrupt and murderous Cuban regime to end its reign of terror. First, we urge you to emphatically denounce the illegitimate Cuban regime, hold it accountable for its human rights abuses and immediately end diplomatic relations. Freedom-loving nations must make clear our full and unwavering support for Cuba's pro-democracy movement, and for free and fair elections, with international supervision.

There is a possibility of votes bleeding into the weekend. The plan remains for the House to pass the package this week, it to move through the Senate next week, and then further House action the following week if there are changes in the Senate. Politics: After some uncertainty about discretionary funding being passed through reconciliation process, the Senate Parliamentarian has tentatively indicated that discretionary funding should be able to be passed through reconciliation if converted into mandatory funding. However, where minimum wage stands remains unclear. In a call to governors last week, President Biden seemed to prepare for the reality that raising the minimum wage would not make it into the final bill.

March 17, 2021 The Honorable Janet Yellen U.S. Department of the Treasury 1500 Pennsylvania Avenue, NW Washington, DC 20220 Dear Secretary Yellen: Congratulations on your recent confirmation to lead the U.S. Department of Treasury. We write today to request your assistance in implementing the Coronavirus Economic Relief for Transportation Services (CERTS) Act provisions included in the recently-enacted Coronavirus Response and Relief Supplemental Appropriations Act. We supported the CERTS Act because America’s motorcoach, school bus, and passenger vessel industries have been greatly affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. These industries play an essential role in national and community transportation networks, providing vital services for large and small as well as urban and rural communities. For example, the motorcoach industry recently provided more than 700 buses to transport National Guard troops to Washington D.C. to protect our nation’s capital. This past year has been incredibly challenging for these vital transportation providers as almost all major sources of business and revenue has been severely restricted or eliminated by state mandated closures – including school and sports-related travel, tourism, and mass public events. Unfortunately, indicators forecast that we will not be returning to normal operations for months. To ensure that these transportation service providers are ready and available for Americans once the economy reopens, emergency funding for these industries is necessary. That is why the U.S. Department of Treasury must move as quickly as possible to provide financial assistance, as authorized by Congress, to these companies that desperately need to keep their employees on payroll and cover increased operating costs.
