“We have the money. That’s not the issue. We have the ideas. That’s not the issue. What we have not had is the moral commitment. And that’s why we have to have a movement to make that come into existence. … The fact is a nation’s budget tells where her heart is. ” – Rev. Dr. William J. Barber II, senior pastor of Greenleaf Christian Church, Goldsboro, NC
