AABE supports Congressional increases to LIHEAP funding—$10M in the House and $20M in the Senate—highlighting its role in supporting low-income families, child health, and energy conservation. The organization urges Congress to reject cuts to LIHEAP and CSBG, ensure timely grant delivery, and maintain federal oversight, noting private efforts cannot replace government support.
