Tomorrow, the House will vote on a coronavirus response bill the Senate
passed yesterday that leaves the vast majority of Americans without much
needed relief.

Former Harry Reid aide Adam Jentleson commented: "Dems are saving their
biggest asks for the next round. Republicans said, OK great, really
looking forward to the next round - but first let’s just take care of a
quick piece of housekeeping, which is to give us the thing we need most.
Then we’ll be sure to listen to your demands."

The bill does not secure our elections. There's no support for front line
workers. Nothing to keep workers on payrolls or give Americans recurring
payments. No suspension of rent or mortgage payments. No student debt
relief or expansion of Social Security benefits during the crisis.

We keep being told to wait for the real solutions. We elected a Democratic
House -- we need to use it and stop letting Mitch McConnell control the
terms of the debate.

groups calling on House Democrats to oppose any bill in the next round
that does not prioritize the People’s Agenda. We must keep people on
payrolls, provide real financial relief for all Americans, protect public
health, and enact a vote-by-mail requirement in November's election. Sign
here.

Our country is facing an unprecedented crisis. Our communities need
Congress — and the Democrats we’ve empowered to control the House — to
fight for the People’s Agenda.

That means that the next coronavirus response bill must:

 1. Keep people on payrolls: Stop mass layoffs and preserve employment
relationships for all businesses, including small businesses. Ensure
federal dollars go to workers and small businesses, not enriching CEOs
and Wall Street.
 2. Provide financial relief: Expand aid for the most vulnerable,
including direct cash assistance, increased food aid, debt relief, and
eviction protections.
 3. Protect public health: Full health coverage for all coronavirus care
and protections for all frontline workers.
 4. Defend elections: Enact a vote-by-mail requirement for 2020 federal
elections while maintaining access to in-person voting for those who
do not have access to mail voting.

And, Democrats must ensure the next package provides relief to every
person in this country, regardless of tax or immigration status, age, or
disability.

On this push, we're proud to team up with Indivisible, Social Security
Works, United We Dream, Ultraviolet, Friends of the Earth, Working
Families Party, Women’s March, Demand Progress, Bend the Arc, Center for
Popular Democracy, Mijente, Demos, Color Of Change, Black to the Future
Action Fund, People’s Action, NextGen America, Democracy for America,
Community Change Action, Justice Democrats, and Jobs with Justice.

pledge to vote NO on any coronavirus response bill that does not focus on
the People’s Agenda.

Thanks for being a bold progressive.
