A Campaign to Cut Poverty in the United States in Half in Ten Years

Half in Ten plans to reduce poverty in the United States by 50 percent within 10 years. Under the leadership of Senator John Edwards, the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now (ACORN) (http://www.acorn.org ), the Center for American Progress Action Fund (CAPAF) (http://www.americanprogressaction.org ), the Coalition on Human Needs (CHN) (http://www.democracyinaction.org/chn ), and the Leadership Conference on Civil Rights (LCCR) (http://www.civilrights.org ), have joined forces on the campaign to:


(1) Elevate and sustain a focus on the situations facing the poor and middle class today

(2) Build and strengthen an effective constituency to demand legislative action on poverty and economic mobility

(3) Advance specific legislative and policy proposals that will deliver real benefits to struggling American families
