DOLLARS DEVOTED TO SUPPORTING PITTSBURGH’S JEWISH COMMUNITY

There are dollars devoted to supporting Pittsburgh’s Jewish community in a new federal spending plan. The U.S. House passed a 460-billion-dollar measure yesterday to keep the government operational until the next fiscal year. The package includes one-million dollars to rebuild the Tree of Life educational space and more than half-a-million for counseling and programs through the 10.27 Healing Partnership. The bills will now move on for votes in the Senate.
