Dear Friend,

This Mother’s Day, as we celebrate the many, many ways that moms power the
U.S. (and all of us!), we’re calling on Congress to power moms by passing
care policies!

[ [link removed] ]Tell Congress: Power moms - Pass care policies in honor of Mother’s
Day! *You’ll automatically sign on if we already have your information.

What happened? Together, we’ve championed AND PASSED many recent care
policy advances to supercharge moms across the nation that are worthy of
superhero recognition: The Pregnant Workers Fairness Act and the PUMP Act
have protected pregnant and breastfeeding workers from workplace
discrimination. Full funding for the Special Supplemental Nutrition
Program for Women, Infants, and Children (WIC) and temporary expansion of
the Child Tax Credit (CTC) have provided an enormous boost for our economy
and our families during challenging times. Plus, investments in maternal
health care, prescription drugs, and child care have bolstered moms,
businesses, and families. We also fought for (and won!) a heroic victory
in the Inflation Reduction Act to reduce corporate tax loopholes in a way
that also powers vital health care and climate change programs.

What’s next? As we celebrate recent victories, we must continue to fight
to build the transformational Care Economy policies that we, our nation,
and our economy need to thrive: Affordable Childcare, Fair Pay for Care
Workers, Paid Family/Medical Leave, and Aging and Disability Care.

And we can do it! We’ve shown we can win in the past, so know that we can
win again! That’s why this Mother’s Day, we’re calling on Congress to
power moms by passing care policies, and we’re also sharing powerful care
stories with every member of Congress so they know why these policies are
important. [1] Will you join us?

Dear Congress,

This Mother’s Day, as we celebrate the many ways that moms power the U.S.
(and all of us!), MomsRising and our more than 1,043,704 super-mom members
who live in every state in the nation are calling on Congress to build the
Care Economy. Super-moms across the nation are urging Congress to pass the
following so families, businesses, and our economy can thrive:

* Tackle the Child Care crisis head-on by investing $16 billion a year
to stabilize the child care sector, as well as advance long-term
investments to ensure every child has a safe place to learn and their
parents can stay in the workforce, and that every childcare worker is
paid family supporting wages.
* Establish a national Paid Family & Medical Leave program, granting
eligible workers at least 12 weeks of paid time away from work to
welcome a new baby, fight their own health battles, or provide care
for a family member in a serious health crisis.
* Invest in Aging & Disability Care so everyone can receive super-hero
level compassionate care, allowing them to live and age with dignity
and independence.
* Ensure Fair Pay for Care Workers, whose everyday deeds are nothing
short of heroic and are critically important for our families and
economy, as well as protect immigrant workers and their families who
are a critical part of our nation and care workforce.
* Secure access to Reproductive Freedom, including abortion and the full
suite of reproductive healthcare, and fortify funding for Maternal
Health by advancing policies like the Black Maternal Health Momnibus
to move us closer to ending disparities in maternal health.
* Permanently expand the Child Tax Credit to allow people to afford
housing and childcare so they can work and take care of their
families.

Real-life mom superheroes, caregivers, and businesses from every corner of
the nation need these policies and are looking for you to champion these
policies as we continue this vital mission to build a nation where
everyone and our economy can thrive.
