Friends --

Even with a vaccine on the way, our nation could be facing a long, dark winter. The virus is spiking in almost every state, and millions of Americans are struggling to pay rent, buy groceries, or afford high-quality health care during a deadly pandemic.

Even though Donald Trump threw in the towel on COVID-19 response, Congress shouldn’t. They may be in a lame-duck session, but that doesn’t mean they’re allowed to lean back, put their feet up, and take a long vacation until President-elect Joe Biden and incoming members of Congress and Senate are sworn into office.

Mitch McConnell allowed the Senate to adjourn ahead of the Thanksgiving holiday, meaning Senators were able to skip town while struggling Americans went another week without aid. But the Senate has now reconvened -- and they must get to work on passing a new stimulus package IMMEDIATELY .

Congress must pass a new COVID-19 relief bill.

Immediately.

A one-time stimulus check of $1,200 was never going to be enough. It was never going to last through the ongoing pandemic. And extra unemployment benefits must be FULLY extended.

Congress has more work to do. Add your name if you agree.
