Public Policy PrioritiesGoodwill asks you to support federal legislation that will help Goodwill provide more people with job training and employment services, so they can become self-sufficient. There are currently three key issues that are crucial to Goodwill’s mission: * The Second Chance Act would provide states and localities grants to offer job assistance, drug treatment and mental health services and job training to former prisoners returning home.
* The IRA Charitable Rollover Provision would extend a tax provision that allows U.S. residents to make a direct contribution from their Individual Retirement Accounts to a charitable organization. * Personal Retirement Savings for Persons with Disabilities (HR 3696) would allow Americans with disabilities to achieve self-sufficiency through work and personal savings for retirement.
Goodwill needs your support to help get these legislative proposals passed. |
