Father Larry Snyder

Good morning,

Thank you for the opportunity to talk with you today on the issues of poverty and effective solutions that can create more opportunities for those who are less fortunate in our country.

As we move into the second term of the 110th Congress and the final year of President Bush’s term, we are once again faced with some critical decisions regarding the future of America and how we serve and create opportunities for the least among us.

The manner in which a society treats the least among is a statement as to what our priorities are as a nation.
