A 46% cut to Legal Services Corporation funding means fewer survivors protected, fewer veterans helped, fewer families supported, fewer lives made safer.

More than 2.9 million people would lose access to legal aid and the chance to resolve their problems, protect their families, and move forward if Legal Services Corporation funding is slashed by 46% as proposed by the House of Representatives. #LSCMatters @legalservicescorp.bsky.social

Legal aid protects children, older Americans, families, veterans, and survivors of domestic violence. A 46% cut to Legal Services Corporation funding would deny thousands the help they deserve. #LSCMatters #LegalAidMatters

$391 an hour. That’s the going rate for a private attorney in California. ​
​Most people don’t have that kind of money sitting around – especially in the middle of an eviction, when their public benefits have been denied, or when they’re in a financially abusive relationship. ​1/2
