Reinstate RIF: We're Moving Forward!
 Good news! The House and Senate Appropriations Subcommittees on Education have reinstated RIF's FY11 funding. But challenges remain. The funding must still be approved by full committees in both houses of Congress, make it into the final bill, and be signed by President Obama. We may need your help, so please stay tuned at Rasco From RIF and RIF's Advocacy Center for the latest news. Thank you!
