Candidates attend Syracuse ACTS meeting

Syracuse ACTS, a coalition of 26 faith groups, civic organizations and unions, held a meeting on Sunday to gain momentum and support for its social justice campaigns. In addition to CBAs, ACTS is also working to make it easier for people leaving jail to get birth certificates and to get more kids signed up for New York's health insurance plan for children. More than 1,000 people and the three area candidates for the 25th congressional district attended.
