HI ,
In the weeks following the initial lockdowns due to the COVID-19
coronavirus, it's been a constant thought on the minds of people across the
country:
"What am I going to do?"
We cannot allow this pandemic and the economic repercussions that come with
it to be downplayed.
A one-time payout of $1200 is not enough.
In fact, if you are like most Americans, you watched that $1200 disappear
even faster than it was deposited into your bank account. Even then, that
is assuming that you even received your stimulus check.
We cannot downplay this emergency.
We are experiencing a coronavirus depression that is quickly becoming
deeper and more dire than the Great Depression. As people look to our
government for answers and aid, they are met with two things:
* Radio silence from people like Joe Biden who refuse to step up and be
leaders in this time of crisis.
* Daily bad advice from an orange buffoon who believes that he knows more
than the world's top experts.
Meanwhile, the bills do not slow down while unemployment and small business
failures soar. Furthermore, healthcare workers still lack the necessary PPE
to safely perform their jobs as sickness and death due to the coronavirus
continue to spread.
The answer, contrary to the claims of Donald Trump, is not injecting
disinfectant or somehow shining ultraviolet radiation under our skin.
The answer lies in a new, fifth wave of support for Americans. These issues
have already been brought up by some members of Congress, but they will not
pass if we do not speak up.
We are fighting for:
* Medicare to Pay for COVID-19 Testing and Treatment and All Emergency
Health Care
* Defense Production Act to Rapidly Plan the Production and Distribution
of Medical Supplies and a Universal Test, Contact Trace, and Quarantine
Program to Safely Reopen the Economy
* An OSHA Temporary Standard to Provide Enforceable PPE Protection for
Workers
* $2,000 a Month to All Over Age 16 and $500 per Child
* Loans to All Businesses and Hospitals for Payroll and Fixed Overhead To
Be Forgiven If All Workers Are Kept on Payroll
* Moratorium on Evictions, Foreclosures, and Utility Shutoffs
* Cancel Rent, Mortgage, and Utility Payments; Federal Government Pays
Those Bills; High-income People Pay Taxes on this Relief
* Suspend Student Loan Payments with 0% Interest Accumulation
* Federal Universal Rent Control
* Aid to State and Local Governments Sufficient to Keep Essential
Services Running
* Universal Mail-in Ballots for the 2020 General Election
Look…
Now isn't the time for I-Told-You-So's, but this pandemic is a vital
wake-up call to action for things that we should have already been doing to
protect our people and our climate well before the coronavirus hit.
This is why we absolutely need an Ecosocialist Green New Deal [3] as soon
as possible.
We cannot settle for the watered-down pseudo-results that we are currently
being fed. Lives are on the line.
We need an Economic Bill of Rights that guarantees income above poverty
level, jobs, housing, Medicare for All, tuition-free education, and secure
retirement.
With Ecosocialism, our country would be a world leader in ensuring the
health and wellbeing of both our environment and our people.
This is exactly why we are counting on your support as we continue our 2020
campaign.
This is a campaign about issues that matter most to the 99%. We are
rallying progressives from all across this country to create an unstoppable
movement that is THE party of the left.
We can do better than the choices of Donald "Childish Dummy" Trump and Joe
"Asleep at the Wheel" Biden.
MAKE THE CHOICE FOR A PROGRESSIVE FUTURE BY CLICKING HERE TO DONATE NOW!

Together we will make the Green Party into an unstoppable force for good.
Let's paint the polls Green!
