Executive Summary
Policy Brief No.5: Economic Human Rights Bus Tour in California May 29-31, 2001
The gap between the richest and poorest Americans continues to widen, creating deep wounds in the body and soul of this nation. The economic and social policies of the United States’ government perpetuate these growing income disparities, often in clear violation of the tenets of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR) and the human rights of tens of millions of struggling Americans.
Inspired by the principles embodied in the UDHR, Food First/ the Institute for Food and Development Policy, organized the 2001 Economic Human Rights Bus Tour in California to document the dire need for government policies that respect, promote, and fulfill the human right of every individual to food, housing, health care, education, and a living wage.
