"I don’t think we have yet felt the urgency of acting immediately. That time could develop, but I don’t think it has yet.” - Mitch McConnell

McConnell is out of touch -- Majority Leader Mitch McConnell said he doesn’t feel a sense of urgency to provide further relief to Americans during a public health and economic crisis.

Ohioans know this is urgent because they’re experiencing the impact of the coronavirus pandemic firsthand.

Sign our petition and tell McConnell to provide much-needed relief to Americans >>

Ohioans and Americans all over the country are struggling to pay their rent, mortgages, and utility bills. They’re worried about being able to afford their medical bills and groceries. They’re concerned about job security in the wake of millions of layoffs.

Democrats know Americans are hurting, and the House Majority advanced a coronavirus relief package to provide aid to state and local governments, small businesses, and workers, including:

• Another round of direct cash payments to put money in Americans’ pockets
• Hazard pay for frontline workers and worker safety protections
• Extending unemployment benefits
• Housing aid for homeowners and renters
• Expanding the small business loan program to keep workers on the payroll
• Emergency aid for state and local governments
• Funding to strengthen COVID-19 testing and contact tracing

Now, I’m urging McConnell to take action on a COVID-19 relief package ASAP, but I need grassroots activists like you to join me. Will you sign our petition?

With gratitude,

Sherrod
