Middletown, #Ohio, where JD Vance is from, summer camp saved after federal funding paused

"They're not data, they're real people that we are coming into contact with every day, who need our support, who need to experience the world, who need to know that they're valued"

A summer camp program serving disadvantaged children in Middletown will continue after a $60,000 donation, keeping the program running through July 25.

The Community Building Institute's (CBI) summer camp was set to end early when the U.S. Department of Education temporarily paused federal funds that support the program.

"We lost $600,000 in funding ... out of the $200,000 that we have per grant, we are allowed to hold or host summer camp activities," said Verlena Stewart, executive director of CBI

Letter to a #Senator / 22 June: Mr. #Tillis, I oppose the provision in the #OBBBA that permits the sale of #federallands to offset the #taxbreaks included in the bill. Relying on the sale of assets to cover ongoing expenses is demonstrably poor fiscal policy. It’s not #sustainable. 1/5
