Nearly one year ago, my #PoorPeoplesCampaign co-chair @liztheoharis and I were arrested with many others at the Capitol attempting to shine a light on the struggle and fight of the nation’s 140M Poor and low-income. 
Today we return to Capitol Hill, two theologians donning religious vestments and stoles reminding those who invoke the Bible that Jesus was a poor man.
We return alongside members of our movement who represent poor and low income communities across the country to testify in front of the House Budget Committee not to lobby Congress, but to reveal the faces behind the facts of poverty.
We're bringing some truth telling to Washington today. Watch the livestream. poorpeoplescampaign.org/congress/
