The MCC Washington Office website provides information about the office, action alerts, upcoming events, and resources on domestic and international issues. Recent highlights include:
Justice in Haiti
The MCC Washington Office continues to advocate for justice, human rights and economic sustainability as Haiti rebuilds from the devastating earthquake last January. A new webpage, online at washington.mcc.org/haiti, will be kept up-to-date as the situation on the ground changes.
Africom
A new web resource on the U.S. military command in Africa. U.S. military activity now overshadows diplomacy and development in Africa after the establishment of the military U.S. Command for Africa (Africom) in 2007. Africom consolidates U.S. military operations in Africa under one military command. The establishment of this new command has led to suspicion from African governments and concern from civil society.

Immigration
The MCC Washington Office has started producing monthly legislative updates on the efforts to reform the U.S. immigration system. To access these updates see washington.mcc.org/issues/immigration.
