Public Policy

Public Policy Positions

UUSC works with colleague agencies to demonstrate a unified position on major public policy issues. We do this by sharing action alerts and/or providing Web-site links on selected issues, and by signing on to letters to appropriate policy-makers. This collaborative approach enables us to multiply the impact our positions have on key legislators or top executive branch officials.
