Indivisibles,

BREAKING: Senate Republicans are already working to oppose a House bill on crucial coronavirus response measures.

The bill, introduced last night, would make coronavirus testing free, along with implementing paid emergency medical leave, extending unemployment insurance, providing food assistance, and protecting healthcare workers. All absolutely essential responses during a pandemic.

But just this morning, Mitch McConnell called this plan an “ideological wish list.”

Let’s get this straight: McConnell is the one using his ideology to hold the health and safety of millions of people hostage. And we can’t let him get away with it.

We need you to do two things right now:

1. Call your two senators and tell them you support H.R.6201 (the Families First Coronavirus Response Act). The bill hasn’t even passed the House yet, and GOP senators are already working against it; we need to make sure it passes in the House and that the Senate is ready to pass it as soon as they receive it. There are literally lives on the line. Click here to connect directly to your senators' offices.
   
   
2. Donate to the Payback Project. We already knew Senate Republicans aren’t interested in protecting their constituents -- but this is just shameless. These senators are willing to block access to key health resources during a pandemic because they’re too focused on protecting corporations instead of people. It’s time for them to go -- and we need your help to make it happen. Click here to donate so we can take back the Senate and continue all our crucial work this year.

Senate Republicans have proved to us again and again that they don’t care about us -- and right now it’s more crucial than ever that we fight back. Standing together and helping one another is the only way we’re going to win (check out our resource on building community during the coronavirus to do just that). Thanks for being a part of it.

In solidarity,
Indivisible Team
