[[link removed]]Dear John,
We urgently need your help to tell representatives that the people of this country demand relief that isn't an insult to the pain of this year. Click here to use our tool and let them know the country is watching. [[link removed]]

Young people are hurting. We are struggling to pay off mounds of student debt while trying to support ourselves and our families. We want good jobs to heal our communities, yet are facing climate collapse, historic unemployment, wage stagnation, and economic inequality. Amid the COVID pandemic, we have been organizing like hell to build movements and elect leaders into office who will fight for our generation.

Throughout the past year, our movement and progressive champions have been fighting for survival checks to be included in every relief package but Republicans have blocked this proposal every step of the way. For months, progressives like Rashida Tlaib, Ed Markey, Ro Khanna, Bernie Sanders, AOC, and more have been demanding $2,000 monthly cash relief for the American people until the end of this pandemic and economic crisis but, earlier this week, Congress passed a final COVID relief package including only a $600 check. This is an entirely inadequate amount and a slap in the face for working people.

Now, after months of ignoring the negotiations to instead have an extended tantrum about the election, Trump has stated that he won't sign this COVID relief bill into law unless it includes the $2,000 checks that our movement has been asking for. His motives are extremely suspect, but we know people need this money right now going into another month of rent and bills, with relief from previous programs running out in a matter of days.

This is the moment. Use our tool to tell your representative to pass $2000 survival checks. [[link removed]] Working people have already waited too long.
