“Service above self and enough for everyone’s need” captures the holiday spirit and is a compassionate road map for America (“Place service above self,” Our Readers’ Views, Dec. 24). Let’s make 2020 a year of enough for everyone. Call, write, or visit those who represent you in Congress and ask them to work towards that. It definitely is the opposite of cutting three-quarters of a million people from food stamps, as is currently planned.
Make sure everyone has enough to eat, a home, a quality education, heath care, and a job to keep it that way. Increasing the Earned Income Tax Credit and the Child Tax Credit would be a good start, and a great change for the 5 million people currently taxed into poverty. So let’s light up the phones in the halls of Congress and make sure everyone has enough in 2020.
