Call the Senate TODAY to Support Coronavirus Relief
It’s been more than three months since the U.S. House of Representatives passed the Heroes Act, an emergency relief bill that would provide crucial economic, nutrition, and health supports and fill major gaps in earlier legislative responses. Last week, an insufficient, narrow COVID relief bill failed to pass the Senate. Every day without a comprehensive relief package further threatens the health and economic security of people with low incomes, communities of color, and immigrant communities.
Call your Senators TODAY – (888) 496-3502 – and tell them to pass a comprehensive COVID Relief bill that gets desperately needed support to individuals, families, and states.
The COVID-19 public health and economic crisis has deepened racial inequities and worsened hardship among people with low incomes and Black, Latinx, Asian, Native, and immigrant families. Congress must invest in
*
income
and
nutrition
supports,
*
comprehensive
paid
sick
days
and
paid
family
and
medical
leave
for
all,
*
child

for

parents,
*

for
people
with

and
*

for

governments.
The coronavirus pandemic emerged in the context of deep inequities across income, race, and ethnicity, which have only been exacerbated by the pandemic.
