  Subject: [Peace] Fwd: VOTE YES TUESDAY (TOMORROW) FEBRUARY 5,2008 CHAMPAIGN TOWNSHIP REFERENDUM




  PLEASE PASS ALONG TO OTHERS

  On Tuesday, City of Champaign Voters will have the opportunity to pass the following  Advisory Referendum 

   FEBRUARY 5th 2008 ADVISORY REFERENDUM 
  "Shall the voters of the City of Champaign Township ask the Township Trustees to restore the level of General Assistance funding by actively pursuing any and all means available to them in order to preserve the health and well-being of individuals, children, families and adults living in extreme poverty in our Township?  

  VOTE YES


  Townships are mandated by Illinois law to provide General 

  Assistance to the poorest of the poor.

   On February 1, 2007, the City of Champaign Township was forced to terminate over 50% of eligible clients from General Assistance because of budget constraints.  Monthly assistance  to clients were reduced from $212 to $150.  Township clients live on less than $3,000 a year.

  Poverty is not just a problem of developing countries, Poverty exists everywhere, in every city and every state in the US. In spite of the prosperity that the City of Champaign enjoys, many of our citizens go hungry and lack even the basic needs of medical care, shelter, and warm clothing. 

  On Tuesday, February 5th, You have an opportunity to make a difference.  Vote Yes
