The White House has proposed eliminating funding for LSC. But access to justice isn’t a partisan issue, it’s a fundamental promise we owe every American. Across party lines, members of Congress have stood up for LSC because they know civil legal aid works—for veterans, survivors, families, and entire communities. 🎥 Hear directly from them in this short video: https://youtu.be/n6VkZDh5IpQ?si=wIeibbbgcax4uIOZ 👉 Civil legal aid isn’t red or blue—it’s about justice for everyday Americans. #LSCMatters (fb)

President Trump’s just-released budget proposes eliminating funding for the Legal Services Corporation. This move would mean LSC-funded legal aid would disappear for everyday Americans facing urgent civil legal problems like evictions, foreclosures, domestic violence, fraud, consumer scams and predatory or medical debt. “The breadth and depth of the damage that eliminating LSC will inflict on the 130 incredible legal aid organizations that LSC funds, and the repercussions for the low-income communities that those programs serve, is difficult to capture and horrific to imagine,” said LSC President Ron Flagg. “Because our justice system was built for lawyers, it is too often true that there is no hope of accessing justice when legal problems arise for the 52 million Americans who qualify for LSC-funded services and have no means to afford an attorney,” Flagg continued.
