For nearly 45 years, CDBG has served as the cornerstone of the federal government’s commitment to partnering with state and local governments to strengthen the nation’s communities and improve the quality of life for low- and moderate-income Americans. Every state, territory and Congressional district receives or has access to CDBG funds. CDBG provides crucial funding for economic development, public improvements, public services and affordable housing. It remains the principal source of federal revenue for states and localities and their program partners to use in developing and implementing flexible community development solutions. CDBG is a critical resource for communities nationwide to use in low- and moderate-income neighborhoods; producing and preserving homeowner and rental housing, providing fundamental infrastructure, vital public services and public improvements, and spurring economic development and public-private partnerships at the local level. CDBG plays a vital role in attracting investment in low- and moderate-income neighborhoods. For every $1.00 of CDBG funding another $4.09 in private and public funding is leveraged. According to HUD, since FY 2005, the program has assisted over 1.435 million low- and moderate-income households rehabilitate their homes, provided down payment and/or closing cost assistance to credit worthy home buyers, and assisted homeowners with lead-based paint abatement. Moreover, since FY 2005, CDBG-funded public improvements directly benefitted over 45 million low- and moderate-income people nationwide and CDBG-funded public services assisted over 139 million low- and 1 moderate-income people nationwide. Additionally, the program has created/retained more than 401,000 economic development related jobs since FY 2005. CDBG has been chronically underfunded. The program has been cut by $1.1 billion since FY 2001. As a result, local communities have been forced to decrease or halt programs that assist low and moderate- income persons. We thank you for rejecting the Administration’s FY18 proposal to eliminate the program and for supporting $3.3 billion for CDBG in FY18; however, this amount falls well short of the $4.4 billion provided for the program in FY 2001. The need for CDBG is absolute. Based on a CDBG Coalition survey, CDBG grantees annually receive far more local applications for funding than can be met with their current CDBG allocation, with most estimating that over half of the applications are not funded. Continue to Restore CDBG Funding. With the increase in the FY19 budget caps, now is the time to continue to restore program funding. We urge you to, once again, reject the Administration’s proposal to eliminate the program in FY19 and to continue to restore the program’s funding by providing at least $3.5 billion for CDBG in FY19. That you for your continued support of the CDBG program.

  • Pope Is Invited to Miami
    SERVING THE PEOPLE OF GOD IN THE COUNTIES OF BROWARD, COLLIER, - DADE, GLADES, HENDRY, MARTIN, MONROE AND PALM BEACH • Volume XX Number 20 August 3, 1979 Price 25c Pope Is Invited to Miami The itinerary is still up in the air for the visit of Pope John Paul II to the United States in October, and ; SI* • Miami is among several cities which have extended bids for the Pontiff to see them during his tour. Archbishop McCarthy urged the Pope to visit this area of the South when he saw him in Rome after receiving the pallium, symbol of his office as Metropolitan of the Miami province.The Archbishop also wrote a letter suggesting the Pope visit here, pointing out that Florida was the site of the first Catholic Mass ever celebrated in the United States. In addition, the Archdiocese has many diverse cultural and ethnic groups, many of them refugees from Com- munism, who have made a new life here and make a great contribution to the work of the Church and the civic community. CHICAGO, DETROIT, Min- neapolis-St. Paul, Philadelphia and Boston are also among the cities where Church and civic officials have invited the Pope to visit. A cabled invitation sent by Cardinal John Cody and his auxiliary bishops invites the pope to come to Chicago after he delivers a major address to the United Nations General Assembly on Oct. 2. Cardinal Cody appointed Msgr. Richard A, Rosemeyer, vicar general and chancellor, as coordinator of arrangements for the hoped-for papal visit. Chicago has the largest Polish community outside of Warsaw.

  • Annexe 1 Liste Des Évêques Et Des Prêtres Foréziens Partis Aux États
    Claude Latta, "Evêques et prêtres foréziens aux Etats-Unis (1817-1870)", Cahiers de Village de Forez, 2009 Annexe 1 Liste des évêques et des prêtres foréziens partis aux États-Unis au XIXe siècle Evêques et archevêques Quarante-quatre Français sont devenus évêques ou archevêques aux États-Unis au XIXe siècle et au début du XXe siècle. Treize d’entre eux étaient nés dans le diocèse de Lyon (diocèses actuels de Lyon et de Saint-Étienne). Parmi eux, dix étaient originaires du Forez (si l’on compte Mgr Fréri, sacré évêque après son départ des États-Unis). Les autres évêques étaient issus des diocèses de Clermont-Ferrand (six évêques), Rennes ( cinq évêques ), Paris (deux évêques ), Saint-Flour ( deux évêques) ; les autres venaient de seize autres diocèses (un par diocèse). Huit d’entre eux ont pour des raisons diverses démissionné, deux ont été nommés ensuite en France, neuf d’entre eux sont morts en France, dont Mgr Odin, d'Ambierle, archevêque de La Nouvelle-Orléans, venu en 1870 au concile de Vatican I et mort à Ambierle alors qu’il était de passage dans son pays natal. Voici la liste des évêques foréziens : - Antoine Blanc (Sury-le-Comtal 1792, La Nouvelle-Orléans, Louisiane, 1860. Il partit aux États-Unis en 1817. Évêque in partibus d’Appolonie (1832), coadjuteur de La Nouvelle-Orléans, évêque puis archevêque de La Nouvelle-Orléans (1850). - Claude Dubuis (Coutouvre 1817, Vernaison, Rhône, 1895). Prêtre en France (1844-1846), il partit au Texas en 1846. Évêque de Galveston en 1862, rentré en France en 1881. - Antoine Durrier (Saint-Bonnet-les-Quarts, 1832, Natchitoches, Louisiane,1904).

XVII No. 35 form some age-old questions about matters of life and death. How far does the obligation to preserve life, one's own or someone else's, extend? Is it ever permissible to hasten the death of a dying person? Are some human lives of such reduced value that death should be permitted? WHO HAS the right to make such decisions? Does it do more harm than good to try to legislate difficult but crucially important ethical distinctions which touch on these matters—especially in light of the fact that advocates of mercy killing are seeking legal backing for Still their position? These and related questions have been dramatized by the case of Karen Ann Quinlan, the 21-year-old New Jersey woman whose adoptive parents stalks asked a court to authorize discontinuing the respirator which had kept her alive in a hospital since she lapsed into a coma in April. But the heartrending Quinlan case has only served to focus attention in an our especially dramatic way upon issues which have been of growing concern to doctors, lawyers and moralists for some time.
