Watchdog group criticizes Bush's faith-based agenda.
03.21.2005 -

A national philanthropy watchdog group is asking the nonprofit sector to speak out against what it calls the dangers of President Bush's faith-based agenda.
The National Committee for Responsive Philanthropy, based in Washington, D.C., is asking nonprofits to fight the administration's plans, which the committee says drastically cut funding for social services while increasing government and charitable spending to religious groups.
The administration's goal, the committee says, is to court the group of voters Republicans need to maintain power in the federal government."
