John,

Here’s what you need to know.

Last week, as COVID-19 cases were still skyrocketing across the country, the Senate went on vacation. Your senators went on vacation without taking action to address systemic racial injustice, protect essential workers, help struggling families, or fund public schools. At a moment when senators should be doing their jobs, they are failing us.

Please send a message to your senators right now as part of this national day of action to put massive pressure on the Senate to act on the HEROES Act when they come back in session on July 20.

Send a message →

Here are some other actions you can take:

1. Text your senator through the American Federation of Teachers
2. Tweet at your senators
3. Share the latest video explainer about the #HEROESAct 

When senators go back to DC in a few weeks, they will have less than two weeks to extend unemployment insurance, provide financial relief to struggling families, and support essential services -- including public schools, funds for testing and contact tracing, ensuring that every vote can count in November, and saving the postal service.

Take action TODAY to push the Senate for real COVID-19 relief now!

While they vacation, they need to hear loud and clear that we expect them to get back to D.C. and do their jobs. Can you join us and take action today?

In solidarity,

Clarissa
