It's clear already: the first few weeks under the Biden-Harris administration are setting the stage for our country's path to recovery over the next four years and beyond. John, it will take a sustained effort to get our country back on track. When you become a Champion for Progress, your monthly gift of $10 or more provides the resources to work with the new Administration and do just that. We've set an aggressive goal to sign up 100 progressive champions this month. I'm urging you to be among the first to help us reach our goal. Your support will ensure we: Recover from the Pandemic - CAP remains focused on creating the solutions we need to get Americans through the virus to a better post-pandemic future. Impact must include a rapid vaccination rollout in the immediate term and more resources to help Americans balance work and family in the long-term. It includes policies like preserving and expanding access to childcare, better wages for working Americans, and reopening our schools so our children and teachers can return to in-person learning — safely. Rescue our Planet - You and I know we MUST address the climate crisis. Creating net-zero carbon emissions by 2050, if not sooner, will not only slow climate change but will also provide enormous opportunity for resilient infrastructure; new, sustainable jobs; workforce training; and can help repair the damage done to communities that have felt the impact of environmental racism. Rewire America's Economy and Realize Opportunity for All - Covid-19 has underscored the weaknesses in our economy which have increased the wage and wealth gaps in rural communities and cities across the country. CAP is putting forth economic growth plans that are sustainable and equitable, that create high-wage jobs and leave no one behind in skills development and education. Restore our Democracy - Beyond repairing the national division that was so clear over the last few years, we also need to address the erosion of our democracy and tolerance for right-wing nationalism that brought our country to its most critical constitutional and democratic crisis just a few weeks ago. We need to restore our democratic norms and safeguard against the complicit acts that brought us to the brink. Resolutely Fight for Racial Justice and Equity - From the air we breathe to where and how we are educated, to building and maintaining wealth, to treatment within our judicial system, the tenets of our democracy and society too often have been rigged against Black people, Indigenous people, all people of color. Communities of color have been marginalized and set up to fail. That must end. We require - demand - racial justice and systemic equity. And we're working with the Biden-Harris administration to build plans that can deliver it. John, thanks to you, CAP is at the forefront of every major policy conversation with a framework to build a more perfect Union. And as a CAP supporter, that means you have a seat at the table too. And that’s why we need your help. I am urging you to join our Champions for Progress monthly giving circle today, because I need to know we can count on you every month, by our side in this movement and every step of the way. John, with a monthly commitment of $10 or more? Help us reach our goal of 100 Champions for Progress now. I hope you will not hesitate another moment, John. Be a Champion for Progress today and help us really improve the lives of all Americans. For progress, Daniella Gibbs Léger Executive Vice President, Communications and Strategy Center for American Progress
