Tell Congress to Fund WIC Breastfeeding Peer Counselors!

The House Appropriations Subcommittee on Agriculture, Rural Development, FDA, and Related Agencies has passed a Fiscal Year 2013 bill which would cut all funding for WIC breastfeeding peer counselors.

Please e-mail your Representative today to urge them to include $60 million in breastfeeding peer counselor funding for WIC in FY 2013 that is not restricted by caseload needs. Use our sample letter, or type your own into the box provided. The form will automatically send your message to your Representative.
