FCNCL Advocacy Day in Raleigh is Scheduled for April 21, 2026!

April 9, 2026

Dear FCNCL Friends,

Our 2026 Advocacy Day in Raleigh will be held on April 21. Friends will gather to urge our legislators to pass a budget that adequately funds public education, and to protect Medicaid and SNAP benefits from funding cuts. Registration is still open – to register please Click Here.

We are planning for the next two year cycle of the General Assembly by engaging with Quaker Meetings and organizations to discern where we should concentrate our focus in terms of promoting issues to our representatives. The Newsletter also has updates for past action alerts on where those issues stand currently, and a minute from Durham Friends opposing new ICE detention centers and offices in North Carolina.

You can read the Newsletter HERE .

Thank you for your participation, and your attention to our Newsletter. You can find out more about our work at www.fcncl.org.

Thanks,

Jeff Sebens
clerk, FCNCL Outreach and Education Committee
