The COVID-19 pandemic continues to rampage through our communities. On Wednesday
we set two disturbing records: more than 200,000 new coronavirus infections
reported nationwide and 100,000 patients hospitalized in just one day. To add to
this, a quarter of adults in the U.S. are experiencing food insecurity.

It’s been nine months since Congress provided any aid so our communities can
heal and continue to meet basic needs. A team of bipartisan lawmakers finally
put forward a $908 billion relief framework. Mitch McConnell has the power to
make this plan go forward. Tell Senator McConnell to support aid to Americans.

to state and local governments, and support for vaccination distribution along
with other critical aid for educational and agricultural needs.

No bipartisan, bicameral agreement for aid has come in the past nine months. Our communities can’t wait any longer! Mitch McConnell has the power to bring this framework to the floor.

Time is running out for any form of relief this year to save lives and make it
easier on the next administration to continue addressing critical pandemic
impacts. While this package is only a start, the help is needed immediately. It’s time to stop negotiating with the health of our neighbors. Senator McConnell, get behind this bipartisan effort!

Take Action

Adam Taylor
President, Sojourners
