Verite: City leaders are wrangling a significant budget deficit for the second year in a row. With limited funds, what should they prioritize?
Verite quotes comments made by Executive Director Nellie Catzen during her presentation at Big Easy Budget Coalition’s ‘Where Da Money At? The People’s Town Hall’:
“The number one thing that I want everyone in this room to do is to write to your council people — that’s at least three people, your district councilperson and the two at-large — and tell them what you think about these cuts,”
“A budget is a moral document. … That means what we fund is what we value.”
