Your Action Status: NOT YET SIGNED -> Sign Now

BACKGROUND: The clock is ticking! We need Congress to pass a strong, bold, comprehensive COVID-relief package immediately so struggling families and our economy can begin to recover from this pandemic. Last week the federal eviction moratorium expired and today the $600/week boost in unemployment benefits expires. We need help and we need it now! But we don’t need what Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell is offering up--a corporations-first, families last approach to COVID-relief!

**ACTION: SIGN OUR PETITION NOW telling Congress to reject Mitch McConnell’s COVID-relief plan and replace it with a families-and workers-first comprehensive plan that benefits those in need and our economy, not already wealthy corporations!

2. Call your Senators to say #ExtendUI

BACKGROUND: The clock is ticking! If Congress doesn’t take action in the coming days, millions of struggling families will lose their extended unemployment benefits that were passed in the CARES Act. That $600/week boost in benefits is crucial for unemployed workers making ends meet. We need you to call your Senators on Monday and tell them to extend unemployment insurance and protect the $600/week boost in benefits. Remember to make your call on Monday when your Senators are back in their office. In the meantime, you can also check out our #ExtendUI social media toolkit to post information on Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram (and don’t forget to tag your Senators!).

**ACTION: Text “ExtendUI” to 747464 and we’ll connect you directly to your Senator’s office.

3. Historic vote in the House on child care thanks to YOU!

BACKGROUND: Yesterday, in a historic vote, the House passed both the Child Care Is Essential Act and the Child Care for Economic Recovery Act would ensure a $50 billion stabilization fund for the child care sector at this time when programs around the country are closing and the lack of quality, affordable child care has become a national emergency. This win is thanks to all the parents and child care providers who have been speaking out for months on the need to save child care. Parents like Julie Groce and Diana Limongi, MomsRising members who recently spoke on their child care experiences at a congressional hearing on child care with Deb Perelman of Smitten Kitchen.

**ACTION: Watch them by clicking this link, and then text "SaveCC" to 747464 to urge the U.S. Senate to quickly pass these bills as well and #SaveChildCare.

This underhanded attempt to control our public health data and cut funding for the CDC (and testing!) must be stopped!
