Important update, John:

Last weekend, the U.S. House passed bipartisan legislation to provide relief to workers and families across the United States in response to the growing coronavirus pandemic.

While this bill may not be perfect, it will make a BIG difference in supporting those struggling in light of this virus. The Families First CoronaVirus Response Act includes:

*
Emergency
paid
sick
leave
for
workers
and
their
families
impacted
by
the
virus;
*
Free
testing
for
COVID-19
for
those
suspected
of
having
it;
*
$1
billion
for
states
to
expand
unemployment
benefits
for
those
who
lose
their
jobs
due
to
the
outbreak;
*
$1.15
billion
for
food
banks
and
other
food
aid
for
seniors
and
low-income
families.

With grocery store shelves emptied, countless people unable to find or afford the basic necessities they need, workers worried about losing their jobs or missing a paycheck because they’re sick, we need this relief ASAP.

The only problem is, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell won’t bring the bill up for a vote until the end of this week after taking a recess this past weekend. Even President Trump has said he’s ready to sign this bill into law – so why are Senate Republicans putting it on hold?

Time is of the essence -- Americans cannot wait.

If you agree we need those in power to pass relief in response to the coronavirus now, add your name to our petition calling on the Senate to pass this legislation ASAP >> [[link removed]]

Together, we’ll get through this.
