SUBJECT: YWCA USA Bi-Weekly Policy Update
YWCA Advocacy Points of Contact,
This is the sixth in a series of policy updates that YWCA USA has prepared for your use. You will find a summary of President Trump’s executive orders relevant to YWCA’s mission, an update on Cabinet and Supreme Court nominations, and details on movement regarding the repeal of the Affordable Care Act (ACA). We have also provided links to resources for additional information.
The fast pace of activity continues as we head into the third week of the new administration. To keep you fully apprised, these policy updates will continue on a biweekly basis. We encourage you to keep updated on our advocacy regarding Cabinet nominations through the Transition 2017 intranet page - which includes links to action alerts, letters, and resource materials - and to learn more about the 2017 – 2018 Public Policy Priorities and explore new fact sheets to support your advocacy.
Finally, please do not hesitate to reach out to us with questions and concerns.
With best wishes,
YWCA USA Public Policy & Advocacy
