If Congress's restriction of WEEA funds was a surprise to you, please tie
into an organization that monitors and reports on legislation that is
detrimental the advancement of educational and social equity. AAUW is
such an organization.(They also have several grant programs) Visit
www.aauw.org for information on the organization and its mission,etc.

Meanwhile take a moment to call your Senators and Representative and let
them know that equity has not been achieved and continued funding is
needed.
