CALL TO PROTECT OUR FUTURE

Jump to today’s scripts:

BACKGROUND

President Biden and Congressional Democrats #CareForUs.  They delivered

  • Life saving vaccines

  • A stable economy

  • Money in bank accounts to help our children 

President Biden and Congressional Democrats are on the precipice of delivering the American Jobs and Families Plan which will invest in America and its people.  Highlights include

  • Expanding Medicare and Medicaid

  • Addressing climate change

  • Improving our education with four years of guaranteed public education

  • Providing DREAMers a path to citizenship

  • Extending the Child Tax Credit

  • Making sure the wealthy and corporations pay their fair share

 These amazing life changing achievements are only possible because of our votes. We turned out in record numbers in a pandemic to elect a progressive government that #CaresForUs. Jim Crow Republicans see the power of our vote and are doing all they can to strip it from us.  Congress must protect our freedom to vote. The Senate must eliminate the filibuster and pass the For the People Act. The House must update the John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act to withstand a Supreme Court challenge and pass it.

There can be no Congressional holidays or recess until all this important work is done.
