The Friends Committee on National Legislation (FCNL) is a nonprofit organization founded by Quakers that advocates for federal policies aligned with peace, social justice, environmental sustainability, and democracy. It works to influence government decisions through lobbying, testimony, and education, representing Quaker values of integrity, equality, and nonviolence. FCNL aims to create a more just and compassionate society by engaging policymakers and the public on issues like peacebuilding, human rights, climate change, and economic fairness. It functions as a bridge between the Quaker community and national government, promoting policies that reflect Quaker principles of harmony and respect for all.
